Oleoestepa Arbequina D.O.P.Estepa
A relatively new olive variety in our olive groves, as all the plantations are under 30 years old, producing spectacular output levels of an extremely high quality. The fruitiness of this oil is well-balanced with the intensities of spiciness and bitterness. Its fruitiness is reminiscent of green fruit puree and tomato, while on the palate, it has a hint of green almonds. Ideal to drizzle over anchovy dishes, in mayonnaise sauces, vinaigrettes and to accompany fresh cheese.
Glass is the container offering the best hygiene and safety conditions. Oleoestepa uses dark glass because it offers extra virgin olive oil better protection from light and its oxidative effects. Glass containers also offer the possibility of recycling, making a positive contribution to the environment.
