A very high-end organic extra virgin olive oil produced by Domenica Fiore, in Umbria (Italy). It is considered one of the best olive oils in the world and regularly wins gold medals in international competitions.
Night Harvest: The name Novello di Notte means "new oil of the night". The olives are picked at night, at the end of September, while they are still very green. This limits their heating and helps preserve the aromas and phenolic compounds.
Very rich in polyphenols: as the olives are harvested very early, the oil is naturally richer in antioxidants than oils from riper olives.
Blend: mainly Frantoio and Leccino varieties.
Taste profile:
- very green and intense;
- notes of artichoke, freshly cut grass, and tomato leaf;
- pronounced bitterness and pungency (this pungency is generally associated with a high polyphenol content).
Format: 500 ml
