Awarded GOLD and certified by the COOC as the highest quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This Estate Grown EVOO has a buttery and grassy front note. Close your eyes and sniff and you will feel like you are on a lush green hill. As with all true EVOO's it is followed by a bite and ends with a strong pepper finish, the latter two notes from its "very high" polyphenol count of 620. Let this EVOO provide the "pepper" to your salad dressigs and dihes.
