HOT ! Herdade Do Esporao Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil 16.9 fl oz (500 ml)

Herdade do Esporão Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced at the historic Herdade do Esporão estate in the Alentejo region of Portugal, an area known for exceptional olive oils and wines. The olives are organically grown on the estate using environmentally responsible agricultural practices and are pressed at Esporão’s sustainable olive mill shortly after harvest to preserve their natural aromas and flavor.

This extra virgin olive oil is made from a blend of Arbequina and Cobrançosa olives, two important Portuguese olive varieties. Arbequina olives contribute smoothness and fruity notes, while Cobrançosa olives add structure, herbaceous aromas, and a slightly peppery finish. The result is a well-balanced and expressive olive oil that reflects the terroir of the Alentejo region.

The oil has a greenish color from freshly harvested olives and offers floral aromas with notes of freshly cut grass, green wheat, and artichoke. On the palate, it is harmonious and complex, with medium fruitiness, gentle bitterness, light spice, and a subtle nutty finish. This balance makes it very versatile for both cooking and finishing dishes.
