Arbequina Monovarietal

Made solely from Arbequina olives grown near Elvas in Portugal's Alto Alentejo, this oil is harvested by hand with vibrators in October and November when the fruit reaches the 'three colours' stage, then cold-extracted with minimal delay. It shows a fruity, sweet character with a smooth buttery finish. The producer suggests it works well with soups, vegetables and mild fish, either raw or in warm dishes.

Sensory Profile & Character

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 4.2

Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.

Bitterness 3

Bitterness is a positive sensory attribute of an EVOO. It can also signal the presence of phenolic compounds.

Pungency 3.2

Pungency is the pleasant peppery or spicy sensation experienced at the back of the throat when tasting olive oil.

Polyphenols 7.2

Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds found in olives and other plants. In olive oil, reported phenolic content is a chemistry measure that can be associated with bitterness, pungency and oxidative stability; total phenols are not interchangeable with hydroxytyrosol-plus-derivatives measurement used for the EU-authorised wording.
