Arbosana Olive Oil is a cold-extracted, unfiltered extra virgin olive oil produced in Australia. It is pressed under 25°C to preserve nutritional benefits, resulting in higher levels of phenolic acids and antioxidants compared to higher-temperature extraction methods. This process yields less oil but maintains quality, with a flavor profile described as balanced between bitter, spicy, and sweet notes. Key characteristics include intensely grassy and fruity aromas, hints of apple, a nutty flavor, and a light, buttery consistency with a pungent, slightly peppery finish.

  • Extraction: Cold-pressed under 25°C, unfiltered
