Smooth, Vibrant, Bold. Just like a fine wine, the varietal, climate and region determine an olive oil's taste. The flavour of this “Extra-Virgin Olive Oil” is new. Each year, harvest and lot are different and make each bottle unique. Oil is a living food; its aroma, colour and taste gradually develop until reaching its own fruity mature characteristic.
Characteristics
Crop growing is run according to the norms of organic agriculture which means without using herbicides, insecticides or other synthetic chemicals, thus avoiding residues. The oil is cold-extracted and then transferred to trujales (underground cellars lined with glazed tiles), before being filtered through paper filters to remove any particles of impurities whilst conserving all its flavour and the natural substances which are so beneficial to your health.
