Made from Leccino olives grown on Shodoshima island in Kagawa Prefecture, Japan, this oil shows a beautiful yellow-green colour with gentle bitterness and pungency. The fruity profile carries almond flavour and subtle herb notes that spread across the palate. Its mild character makes it approachable for those who prefer less assertive olive oils.

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 4.3
Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.
Bitterness 3.5
Bitterness is a positive sensory attribute of an EVOO. It can also signal the presence of phenolic compounds.
Pungency 3.5
Pungency is the pleasant peppery or spicy sensation experienced at the back of the throat when tasting olive oil.
Polyphenols 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.
