This extra virgin olive oil presents an intense fruity profile on the nose, with pronounced aromas of olive leaf, citrus leaves of orange and lemon, and fresh olive twigs. It evokes the freshness of very green vegetables, alongside notes of green almond shell (alloza) and green banana peel, creating a vibrant and highly vegetal aromatic expression.
On the palate, the oil delivers an intense and powerful entry, with a distinctly green character that reflects the same attributes perceived on the nose, especially the citrus notes. It shows high bitterness and pronounced pungency, both very well balanced, persistent, and powerful, accompanied by a noticeable astringent sensation.
