Awarded Bronze and certified by the COOC as the highest quality Extra Virgin Ollive Oil.  This is a lovely blend of our Estate Grown olives: 49.9% Arbequina, with 49.9% Mission and a .2% kiss of our French Picholine.  It has a buttery and grassy front note from its Arbequina contributor as well as an almond and herbaceous note from its Mission and Picholine contributors, followed by a classic EVOO bite and pepper finish.  Even though this EVOO has a "very high" polyphenol count of 651, the melding of these complex notes gives this EVOO a rounder and softer feel, making this EVOO very versatile.  If the recipe calls for one tablespoon of butter, use 3/4 tablespoon of this EVOO.
