Mild Intensity Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Crush Date: October 2024  |  Country of origin: Portugal

The 2024 Portuguese Picual stands out as one of the most complex oils in our current collection. This well-balanced variety reveals vibrant green fruity notes of kiwi, followed by a delightful peppery kick and a lingering floral finish. Our tasting panel awarded it a high fruitiness score.

Our partner producer, SAOV, utilizes a high vacuum malaxation process to eliminate oxygen during this critical stage, where the oil is most susceptible to oxidation. This innovative and technical approach preserves the phenolic content, overall chemistry, and flavor characteristics while minimizing oxidation markers.
