Cold pressed extra virgin olive oil imported directly from the source in Italy. Great for using in salad dressings, drizzled on toasted bread, or to finish off a pasta dish.
World renowned, 100% organic, and one of Spain’s most famous Oils. This oil is estate-produced and bottled. The process begins in the orchards where the olives, which have not been treated with any fertilizers or pesticides, are hand-picked, then pass thorough a rigorous selection at the family’s mill. The olives are crushed under granite stones, an ancient process. Only the oil that flows throw the screens by gravity is bottled in its unfiltered form. This oil has an extraordinary low acidity of 0.1%, 10 times lower than required to be labeled Extra Virgin.
Olio Verde bursts with the taste of ripe tomatoes, and hints of artichoke and apple. A medium-intensity olive oil, it has a round, silky mouthfeel punctuated by a touch of white pepper that amuses the palate, lingering flirtatiously. We are continually astonished by the complexity offered by the single Nocellara del Belice olive, and credit the pristine frantoio with delivering this unrivaled balance of flavors. For us, it’s absolute perfection!
This elegant oil is made from hand-picked, cold-pressed olives which come from the surrounding community just outside the village of Sarocca de Lerida, near Barcelona in Catalonia. The Arbequina olive is the core olive in this oil–the most widely found variety in Catalonia. L’Estornell oils are of exceptional fragrance and delicacy, suitable for dressing salads and for those special occasion meals. Every bottle is vintage-dated.
This oil is obtained from the olives, the fruit of the olive tree, using exclusively mechanical and physical processes such as washing, decanting, centrifuging and filtration and in conditions that are such as to ensure that the oil cannot be changed in any way. This excludes oils obtained using solvents or re-esterification processes as well as those mixed with oils from other sources.
