500ml Classico & 500ml Riserva Duo
Our classic duo, the Classico and Riserva, in our 500ml tins with built-in pour spouts.
Classico Flavor Notes: Smooth, floral, with undertones of apple & artichoke. Your go-to olive oil for salads, fish, daily cooking & hors d'oeuvres.
Riserva Flavor Notes: bright, herbaceous, spicy, with undertones of walnut. Perfect for bruschetta, soups, and red meat.
Both the Classico and Riserva are 100% organic, made using regenerative agriculture, harvested by hand, and cold-pressed. The olives are pressed within twenty-four hours, preserving the olives, ensuring none of the olive oil's antioxidants or vitamins are lost.
Polyphenols are what make extra virgin olive oil rich in antioxidants and nutrients. By definition, high-phenolic olive oil contains at least 250mg/kg of polyphenols.
Classico olives are pressed in November, still months earlier than the big distributors. This creates a high-polyphenol count of between 350 to 400 mg/kg.
The Riserva’s olives are harvested in early to mid-October. The olives’ concentration of polyphenols and chlorophyll are at their height, between 500 and 600 mg/kg.
But as the Riserva olives have not yet reached peak ripeness, we can only extract a small amount of antioxidant-rich olive oil. This is why we only have a limited release of Riserva each season.
