Galega Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oil || Portugal

This particular batch displays savory herb and vegetal characteristics with a lingering floral, peppery finish. The olives were harvested and processed in under an hour from where they grow. 

Galega is consistently an award winner and we expect it to be named a winner again this year!

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.
