Hojiblanca
Spain
November 2023
This robust-intensity Hojiblanca has a complex, leafy, herbaceous aroma and balanced flavours typical of early-harvested Hojiblanca. The taste is predominantly herbal and leafy nettle with green tea, mint, and black pepper notes. The finish is delightful and lingering. This oil tastes fresh, and it’s fruitiness, bitterness, and pungency balance is perfect.

Hojiblanca olives are one of the most popular Spanish cultivars, grown primarily in the Andalusia area of southern Spain. They have a fruity, bittersweet taste and a flesh firm to the bite.
How is Extra Virgin Olive Oil made?
Extra Virgin Olive Oil is made by crushing olives to extract their juices. The crushed olives are then pressed to separate the oil from the solids and water. Finally, the oil is separated and filtered to produce the pure extra virgin olive oil we use for cooking and other purposes.
Cold-Pressed means that no heat or chemicals were used during extraction, preserving the oil’s natural flavours and nutritional quality.
First-pressed means the olive oil was extracted in a single pressing, with no second pressing as in the case of some other oils, like seed oils.
