A vibrant personality exudes from this Provencal extra virgin olive oil. An elegant green fruity oil, its cut grass notes are followed by raw artichoke with a well-balanced bitter and pepper finish. The oil is cold extracted within 6 hours of harvest. The two-phase separation requires no added water. It is a wonderful complement to Roquefort salad or fresh goat cheese, as well as tomato toast.

Shelf Talkers

– 100% Aglandau — the fiercest, most pungent variety native to Provence
– Aglandau is so intensely bitter it’s nearly inedible as a table olive; grown purely for oil
– Cold-extracted at the Castelas mill, at the foot of the medieval Château des Baux
– Intense green fruitiness, sharp bitterness, long peppery finish — the bolder sibling of Classic
– One of only two protected olive oil appellations in France
