Alfar Arbequina 1 L is an extra virgin olive oil produced by Alfar La Majain Mendavia, Navarre. This family-owned oil mill is closely linked to the olive groves of the Ribera de Navarra and works with different varieties to obtain oils capable of expressing the unique characteristics of each olive and the territory.
In this reference, the protagonist is the Arbequina, a variety appreciated for its aromatic, fruity, and pleasant character. Careful handling of the fruit and a production process oriented towards preserving its freshness result in an especially versatile EVOO, suitable both for direct consumption and for regular use in cooking.
Sensorially, it shows a delicate profile, with hints of apple, banana, and almond accompanied by soft vegetal nuances. On the palate, it has a pleasant and fluid entry, with low bitterness and a subtle spiciness that adds freshness without masking the fruity notes.
Its smoothness makes it an excellent choice for toast, salads, vegetables, fish, cream soups, and fresh cheeses. It also works very well in mayonnaises, sauces, doughs, and baked goods. The 1-liter tinkeeps the oil protected from direct exposure to light and offers a convenient capacity for regular use.
