Alfar Edición Limitada Arróniz is an extra virgin olive oil produced by Alfar La Maja in Mendavia, Navarre. This edition highlights the Arróniz variety, an olive traditional to northern Spain and especially representative of Navarre, capable of producing oils with a distinct personality and an interesting aromatic richness.
Its production begins with a careful selection of the fruit, seeking to preserve the freshness and inherent qualities of the Arróniz. The work carried out from harvesting to extraction results in an expressive and well-defined monovarietal, intended for those looking to discover indigenous varieties beyond the more widespread olives of the Spanish olive grove.
On the nose, it presents a predominantly green profile, with hints of fresh grass and leaves accompanied by notes of almond and green fruit. In the mouth, it shows more structure than oils with a sweeter profile, with a perceptible bitterness and a pungency that brings liveliness to the whole. Both sensations remain balanced and give way to a long, aromatic finish.
Due to its character, Alfar Edición Limitada Arróniz is particularly interesting for raw consumption. It is an excellent option for toast, tomato, salads, and vegetables, as well as for accompanying legumes, meats, fish, and cheeses. Its limited edition format also makes it an attractive proposition for those who enjoy discovering EVOO made with local varieties.
