Point of Origin: Portugal
Medium Intensity - Crush Date: November 2023

Our iconic Portuguese Cobrançosa displays savoury notes of tomato leaf, bitter radicchio, and pungent arugula with a lingering spicy finish. 

Our partner producer (SAOV) in Portugal is using a high vacuum during malaxation to remove all of the oxygen in this processing stage where the oil spends the most time and is most prone to oxidation. This cutting edge and very technical method preserves the phenolic content, the overall chemistry plus the flavour characteristics while reducing other oxidation markers.

Our single varietal extra virgin olive oils are our company's 'rotating taps'. Chosen for their excellence from around the globe, these oils are not here to stay. While certain strains are grown in multiple climates, say Picual, their tasting notes vary and can stand side-by-side as different oils. Accordingly our presentation of these oils will vary according to growing seasons in the hemispheres, and in following the best crops available.
