McEvoy Ranch's Organic Olive Oil comes from seven Italian cultivars (Frantoio, Leccino, Pendolino, Moraiolo, Maurino, Coratina and Leccio Del Corno), grown on the family's 50 certified-organic acres near Petaluma, California. The oil yields a green, aromatic oil with notes of cut grass, artichoke and ripe banana, a soft almond-rich palate and a lingering peppery finish. It suits delicate dishes such as flaky fish, butter-lettuce salads or chilled cucumber with herbs and citrus.

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 4.4
Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.
Bitterness 3.1
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 5.4
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.

Why choose it

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

Why choose it

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