This Japanese extra virgin olive oil is made from young olives hand-picked on Shodoshima Island and in Mitoyo, Kagawa Prefecture, then pressed within six hours of harvest. The producer's own extraction method yields only about a third of the usual volume, achieving low acidity. It carries fresh aromas of green apple, herbs and cut grass, with a rich, full-bodied flavour.

Freshness & season

Harvest freshness

The harvest date is disclosed on the bottle or product information, making the release easier to date and compare.

Why choose it

Choose a recent, clearly dated release when you want the most vivid expression of its aromas and flavour.

Worth knowing

A harvest date does not reveal how the oil was stored, so date is an important signal rather than a guarantee of condition.

Product informationHarvest date disclosed
Place & provenance

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Shodoshima, Kagawa Prefecture, Japan.

Why choose it

Choose a clearly identified origin when local identity, traceability and connection to a particular growing area matter to you.

Worth knowing

Origin can make an oil distinctive, but does not by itself guarantee quality or a particular flavour.

Listed originShodoshima, Kagawa Prefecture, Japan
Harvest & milling

How it was made

The olives are listed as being milled at the producing estate or farm. The olives are listed as being harvested manually.

Why choose it

These practices may appeal when you value hands-on harvesting, cooler fruit handling or direct estate control over milling.

Worth knowing

They describe production methods, not elapsed harvest-to-mill time or proof that the finished oil is fresher or better.
