Our early harvest extra virgin olive oil is perfect for
drizzling over salads, dipping bread, or giving as a healthy gift.
This premium organic and non-organic olive oil is made from olives picked early in the harvest season, when they are still young and green. As a result, these olive oils contain a much higher level of antioxidants than regular extra virgin olive oil. Because the olives are still unripe, twice as many olives are used for this olive oil, resulting in a smooth, grassy taste – ideal for cold dishes like salads, as a dip for bread, or as a flavorful and healthy gift.
While you can also use this olive oil for cooking, we recommend choosing our Oro de Genave for preparations at higher temperatures. This way, you can best utilize the unique taste and valuable properties of our early harvest olive oil for cold preparations.
Extra virgin is the Italian name for the same quality: cold-pressed olive oil from the first pressing.
