ARBEQUINA - Medium (PORTUGAL)

Country of Origin: PORTUGAL

Flavour Intensity: Medium Intensity

Crush Date: November 2025

Biophenols: 436 ppm

Our Portuguese Arbequina displays notes of creamy almond
and green apple with a pungent finish.
Our partner producer (SAOV) in Portugal is using a high vacuum during
malaxation to remove all of the oxygen in this processing stage where the oil
spends the most time and is most prone to oxidation. This cutting edge and very
technical method preserves the phenolic content, the overall chemistry plus the
flavor characteristics while reducing other oxidation markers.
