The olives, Memecik varieties, are picked in the late fall harvest—November and December 2024—when the trees carry their richest flavors. After harvest, the oil is cold-pressed to lock in aroma and freshness, delivering a bottle that feels bright and alive in the hand. The 16.9oz bottle is designed for home cooks who appreciate authenticity, sustainability, and a close connection to the origins of their ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for versatility, this EVOO offers a fruity aroma with grassy undertones and a peppery finish that lingers pleasantly on the palate. The experience is clean and vibrant rather than heavy, making it suitable for sauces and finishing touches alike. As polyphenol-rich EVOO, it reflects a depth of character that can complement a wide range of dishes without masking other flavors. Our family farm approach emphasizes ethical, sustainable cultivation, and the product is non-GMO, chemical-free, cruelty-free, gluten-free, and vegan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePractical tasting and kitchen notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen the bottle and notice a bright, fruity scent with hints of fresh-cut grass and a subtle peppery bite.
