Alfar Edición Limitada Tosca is an extra virgin olive oil produced by Alfar La Maja in Mendavia, Navarre. It is part of the mill's special productions, created to offer oils with a distinct identity and to highlight the diversity of the olive groves in this area of the Ebro Valley.
The production is carried out using a carefully selected harvest of olives, paying attention to both the time of harvesting and the treatment of the fruit until it arrives at the mill. This process allows for the preservation of freshness and the attainment of an expressive, clean EVOO with a remarkable aromatic presence.
Its sensory profile is dominated by green and vegetal sensations. Notes of fresh grass and green fruit appear alongside hints of almond that add greater complexity. On the palate, it has a pleasant entry and evolves towards well-balanced bitter and spicy notes, leaving a fresh sensation and a persistent finish.
Its character makes it especially interesting to enjoy raw, where its nuances can be best appreciated. It is a good choice for toast, salads, tomatoes, vegetables, and legumes, as well as for accompanying fish, meat, and cheeses. An edition designed especially for those seeking less conventional EVOOs with a personality of their own.
