Cobrançosa Extra Virgin Organic Olive Oil

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil

about the extra virgin olive oil

An intense and complex olive oil, with herbaceous notes, produced from a selection of terroirs of the Cobrançosa variety.
  • The 2024 agricultural year temperature was mild and there was high precipitation. In winter, this precipitation replenished the soil's water reserves of the rain fed olive groves.

    The harvest started at the beginning of October through November in order to obtain the olives at different states of maturity, ensuring high quality olives that best represent this variety.

  • Shortly after harvest, the Cobrançosa olives are received at the Esporão mill, where cold extraction immediately begins at room temperatures no higher than 24ºC (75ºF). The fruit is quickly milled and then run through a heat exchanger, a system that shortens extraction time and preserves the aromas of this olive oil.

    The paste is centrifuged, and the pomace is mechanically separated from the olive oil that is immediately filtered and packaged.
