🌳 From Grove to Bottle
Freshness begins in the grove. This single-varietal Coratina is produced from carefully selected Peruvian olives harvested early in the season, when flavor intensity and naturally occurring antioxidants are at their highest.
The olives are cold extracted soon after picking to preserve their fresh green aromas, high biophenol content, and distinctive peppery character. The finished oil is then evaluated through laboratory chemistry and professional sensory assessment to verify freshness, purity, and flavor integrity.
🏅 What Does Ultra-Premium Mean?
The Ultra-Premium Standard identifies extra virgin olive oils selected through rigorous chemistry, freshness, sensory, traceability, and quality benchmarks.
Ultra-Premium oils are harvest dated, lab tested, and evaluated using freshness and quality markers such as Free Fatty Acids, Peroxide Value, DAGs, PPP, antioxidant content, fatty-acid profile, and professional taste-panel assessment.
Unlike many mass-market olive oils, Ultra-Premium EVOOs are selected for traceability, freshness, chemistry, and exceptional sensory performance.
