A blend of Picholine and Koroneiki olives, this Extra Virgin Olive Oil received an 'Award' recognition. Picholine offers a fresh green apple note with peppery complexity, while Koroneiki contributes grassy herbaceous tones. Ideal as a finishing oil or in dressings, it pairs well with salads and bread.

No harvest conducted in 2023 or 2024 due to unfavourable weather conditions; anticipating harvest and availability in 2025.

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 4.9
Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.
Bitterness 4
Bitterness is a positive sensory attribute of an EVOO. It can also signal the presence of phenolic compounds.
