Esporão Selecção Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Alentejo, Portugal, is crafted from a blend of Azeiteira, Cobrançosa, Cordovil, Frantoio, Galega, and Picual olives. Using cold extraction at temperatures below 24ºC, it preserves a complex aroma of herbal, fresh cut grass, and tomato vines, with a palate that is elegant, balanced, and persistent with green walnut notes. This oil pairs excellently with vegetables, asparagus, grilled meats, and is perfect for finishing dishes or dipping bread.

Why choose it
