Alfar Arbequina 5 L is an extra virgin olive oil produced by Alfar La Majain Mendavia, in the Ribera de Navarra region. This family-run mill works the olive groves and produces its oil with the aim of preserving the freshness of the fruit and expressing the particular characteristics of the varieties grown in the area.
The Arbequinais the star of this product. It is a variety appreciated for producing aromatic, fluid oils with a gentle character. Its lower intensity of bitterness and spiciness compared to other varieties makes this EVOO a particularly versatile alternative for daily use.
In terms of sensory profile, fruity aromas predominate, with hints of apple, banana, and almond, along with delicate vegetable sensations. It has a soft and pleasant entry on the palate, with a light bitterness and subtle spiciness that provide freshness without detracting from its fruity character.
Its balance allows it to be used both raw and in cooking. It is ideal for toast, salads, vegetables, fish, creams, and sauces, and is also suitable for mayonnaise, doughs, and pastries. The 5-liter tinoffers a convenient solution for frequent use and protects the oil from direct exposure to light.
