The Olive Tree - Chemlali Variety
With a high face value, this stamp features a majestic Chemlali olive tree. This variety, particularly resistant to drought, is most widespread in the center and south of the country (Sfax, Sahel).
The olive tree is the sacred symbol of Tunisia, the leading olive oil producing country outside the European Union. Chemlali embodies the resilience of the land and the sustainability of a culture that dates back to Carthaginian and Roman times.
