Olive Oils: Extra Virgin Olive Oils: Single Varietal

Each extra virgin olive oil varietal is unique in character and style, similar to a fine wine. The olive oils are made early in the harvest season and cold pressed at the lowest temperature possible, producing clean, fruity olive oils with natural flavor and unique characteristics native to each olive variety. The difference between each variety is extraordinary and the quality of these "ultra extra virgin olive oils" remains the same: low acidity, high free fatty acids (FFA) and Polyphenols (antioxidants) which separate the good from the best.
