About the Originale
The Originale is cold-pressed, extra virgin olive oil made from a blend of 3 different olives; Moraiolo, Frantoio, and Leccino. For us, this is the EVOO that started it all. In the mountains where we live, this blend has been made by farmers for centuries. It is the quintessential Umbrian olive oil.
Tasting Notes:
Palate: Intensely herbaceous. Bright and alive with a harmony of tomato, apple, and fresh cut grass.
Finish: balanced aroma with notes of arugula, aromatic herbs, and a gentle spicyness.
Pairings: pairs well with vegetables and salads, grilled fish or white meat, steamed mussels, fresh cheese, and bread.
Harvest Date: 11/2022
Always harvested early, always harvested by hand. We begin early in the season, when the olives contain the highest level of polyphenols and antioxidants, and we put the harvest date right on the bottle.
