From the Jaen region of southern Spain, comes this versatile extra virgin olive oil. Buttery with a hint of grass on the palette, it has a wonderful fresh olive aroma and taste. The Alvarez family owned olive groves in Torredonjimeno produce a delicious single estate 100% arbequina olive oil. Gently nurtured and expertly cultivated, the olives are picked and crushed within 24 hours of the harvest producing an EVOO that not only commands attention on a salad mixed with our fabulous 12 year aged balsamic , it is perfect for everyday use in the kitchen for sautéing, grilling and frying. It's absolutely wonderful for baking bread too. (This EVOO replaces our previous suppliers of Spanish arbequina .) 5 liter jug
