This oil, in full
Everything behind the numbers — the varietal, the estate, the milling, and how to taste it.
The name says it all: 1/10. It takes 10 kg of olives to obtain 1 litre of this oil, and it is made from the very first olives harvested in October (month 10), when 95% of the fruit is still green.
Each bottle carries a lot number and production is limited to what the first week of harvest yields. When it is gone, it is gone.
Use it raw, always. Bread, salad, carpaccio, fresh cheese. You do not fry with an oil like this -- although fried eggs with it taste like heaven.

1/10 is a coupage from the very first litres of each campaign from the Arbequina and Picual varieties. Power and complexity bottled in a gorgeous vessel that lets you see the colour. It is an early harvest where yield is sacrificed in exchange for aromas that very few EVOOs achieve.
