Tasting notes
A structured and elegant olive oil with a bright, green fruitiness at its core.
The bitterness and refined sharpness are perfectly balanced and never overpowering.
Aromatic notes of crushed olive leaves and dried Mediterranean herbs unfold subtly, with light accents of almond peel and eucalyptus.
