Istarska Bjelica
PDO Certified

Istrska belica extra virgin olive oil derives from the Istrian belica olive variety, native to Slovenian Istria with protected designation of origin status. Harvested mid-October from the producer's olive groves in Krkavče and milled within hours, the 2024/2025 vintage exhibits strong fruitiness with notes of green grass, tomato, and almond, followed by medium bitterness and strong pungency. Initial green colour fades to yellow over time. Suited to grilled meats.

Oil Character

Freshness & season

Harvest freshness

Harvest timing helps you judge an oil's age, while filtration and release style affect how quickly it is best enjoyed.

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.

Recorded producer informationHarvested 15 October 2025
Place & provenance

Sense of place

The oil is listed as coming from a single estate in Slovenian Istria, Coastal-Karst, Slovenia, giving it a specific farm origin. Istrska Belica PDO links the product and its production requirements to a defined geographical area.

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.

Certification details listedSlovenian Istria, Coastal-Karst, SloveniaSingle estateIstrska Belica PDO
Harvest & milling

How it was made

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

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.

Product informationProcessed on-site
Olive composition

Single variety listed

The latest release lists Istarska Bjelica as its only recorded cultivar.

Why choose it

A release listing one cultivar is useful when you want to explore that variety's typical character.

Worth knowing

One listed cultivar does not record a percentage, so it should not be treated as proof of 100% composition without a source saying so.
