Extra virgin olive oil from the Ribatejo region of Portugal, crafted from Arbequina and Galega olives using only mechanical processes. This premium oil features very low acidity (0.2%) with a fruity character of ripe olives, subtle notes of green olive leaves and fresh apple, balanced with a gentle bitterness and peppery finish. Perfect for salads, cold dishes, cooked meals and even desserts, it's an ideal choice for the Mediterranean diet. The oil is carefully packaged in light-protected containers inspired by traditional Portuguese tile patterns to preserve its exceptional quality.
