Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 500 ml

This special extra virgin olive oil comes from Filomena Carvalho Neto's olive grove, who also produces the Origens brand. The oil is made from traditional northern Portuguese varieties such as Verdeal, Transmontana, Cobrançosa, Madural, and Santulhana.

Their traditional extra virgin olive oils are produced using an agricultural production system that favors the rational management of natural resources and the use of natural regulatory mechanisms rather than production factors, thereby contributing to sustainable agriculture.

The Seiras olive oil has an intense, bright golden color, with slight greenish reflections. The nose is fragrant, enveloping, round, even a bit oily / unctuous.

The first aromas are rather vegetal, but ripe and not green (ripe olive, roasted green zucchini, grilled eggplant). Then, we find notes of marinated artichoke, fleshy tomato and fresh almond, associated with a very delicate touch of pineapple.

The palate is round and silky, with an enveloping and pleasant fat as well as a peppery, even the notes of roasted vegetables (zucchini, eggplant, tomato), which develop towards the slightly bitter flavors of ripe green olive, fresh green almond, as well as touches of ripe tomatoes and a discreet hint almost aromatic herbs / basil.

Good persistence in the mouth, quite long, but delicate, on notes of dried fruits (fresh almond, toasted hazelnut). A discreet floral hint in the background.

Acidity: less than 0.3%
