Manna Hill Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil
The oil is exceptionally fresh and distinctly green in character, with medium aromatic intensity. Green bean is the dominant note, supported by green capsicum, fresh green almond and a delicate white-blossom aroma. The palate is oily and rich, with medium-high green fruitiness, almost no bitterness and high pungency. The pepperiness is strongest across the tongue before extending into the throat, producing a persistent oleocanthal warmth without becoming harsh. The finish is medium to long, leaving traces of white blossom, green almond and lingering pepper. Despite its pronounced pungency, the oil feels harmonious and well balanced, though it will appeal most to people who enjoy assertive, spicy oils.
