Alfar Edición Limitada Arbosana is an extra virgin olive oil produced by Alfar La Maja in Mendavia, Navarre. This edition is dedicated to the Arbosana variety, an olive capable of producing oils that are particularly aromatic and possess a stronger personality than the small size of its fruit might suggest.
The production process seeks to preserve the natural expression of the olive and enhance its varietal character. A careful selection of the fruit and control throughout the process allow for a fresh and well-defined monovarietal that combines aromatic intensity, structure, and balance.
On the nose, green nuances predominate, with hints of grass and other vegetal aromas accompanied by notes of almond and fresh fruit. On the palate, it presents a good structure, with a perceptible bitterness and a pungency that appears progressively. Its intensity is well-integrated and leads to a long, fresh, and aromatic finish.
Alfar Edición Limitada Arbosana is especially interesting for raw consumption, allowing one to discover the particularities of this variety. It can be enjoyed on toast with tomato, in salads and with vegetables, as well as with legumes, fish, white meats, and cheeses. A different proposal within the Alfar La Maja range for those looking for monovarietal EVOO with its own character.
