Tasting notes
This coupage of Picual and Arbequina presents an intense aroma of green leaf and grass, with notes of tomato plant, green wood and banana peel. On the palate, bitterness and peppery notes express themselves clearly, yet in a balanced way. The aftertaste is of rocket and green almond.
Pairing
This characterful EVOO pairs beautifully with seafood, grilled vegetables and red meat. It also goes well with fruit such as orange or fruit salad. Dark chocolate is a perfect match.
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.
Know every detail

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.
EU organic certification (CAAE).
We order just a few bottles each year because production is minimal. This is the oil we offer to those who already know our catalogue and want to go one step further. Numbered, from the first week of harvest. When it runs out at the boutique, it is gone until October.

This information is mandatory under EU Regulation 1169/2011 on food information to consumers.
Extra virgin olive oil is a fresh product. Its quality depends on proper storage and consuming it within its optimal date. If an online shop does not tell you which lot it will ship or when it expires, you have no way of knowing if what you receive is from this harvest or two years ago.
Be wary of shops that do not publish this information. We show it because we believe you have the right to know exactly what you are buying.
Keep it in its box, at 15-20 degrees C, away from heat sources. Do not leave it open by the window. Consume within 3-4 weeks once opened.
