Oro del Desierto Arbequina 500ml is an organic extra virgin olive oil of limited production, made from Arbequina olives harvested at early veraison on the "El Vicario" estate, located in the Tabernas Desert (Almería). The olive trees are between 10 and 25 years old, planted in 7 x 5 m spacing, with drip irrigation.
Production
- Harvest: from mid-October to early November.
- Extraction: cold, 2-phase, only with very early veraison olives (75-80% green).
- Variety: Arbequina.
- Region: El Vicario Estate, Tabernas Desert (Almería).
Tasting notes
- Color/Appearance: intense golden with green highlights, filtered.
- Aroma/Bouquet: fruity, with fresh almond and mid-ripe fruit notes, harmoniously blended.
- Taste/Mouthfeel: sweet and enveloping, almost no bitterness, slightly pronounced spiciness, leaves a persistent and pleasant vegetal sensation.
Key properties
Although Arbequina is generally less stable, this oil has polyphenol levels between 350 and 450 mg/kg, providing higher shelf stability and flavor intensity than typical oils of this variety.
Pairing
Ideal for desserts, oranges with oil, sauces, fish, and seafood. Always consumed raw or at low temperature to fully enjoy its organoleptic qualities.
