We source our olive oil from a small cooperative in the northern region of Spain, where they harvest the Arbequina olive, one of the most prized in the world. Each olive is picked by hand and "first" cold pressed producing the finest Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This unique extraction preserves the highest levels of antioxidants, particularly vitamin E and phenols. It has a light, fruity, buttery taste making it ideal on salads and in seafood and chicken dishes.
