Alfar Limited Edition Koroneiki is an extra virgin olive oil produced by Alfar La Maja in Mendavia, Navarre. This special edition allows one to discover the expression of the Koroneiki, a variety of Greek origin especially valued for the intensity, aromatic richness, and personality of the oils it produces.
The work of Alfar La Maja seeks to translate the characteristics inherent to this olive to an olive-growing environment different from that of its place of origin. The selection of the fruit and the control during production are aimed at preserving its fresh aromas and achieving a defined, expressive, and balanced monovarietal.
Sensorially, it displays a marked green character. On the nose, hints of freshly cut grass, leaf, and green fruit appear, accompanied by notes of almond and other vegetal nuances. On the palate, it offers a good structure and increasing intensity, with a perceptible bitterness and a lively pungency that provides character. The finish is fresh, aromatic, and persistent.
Its intensity makes it especially recommended for raw use. It can be enjoyed on bread and tomato, salads, vegetables, and legumes, as well as accompanying fish, meat, cheeses, and dishes with pronounced flavors. An especially interesting proposal for those who wish to discover how a traditional Greek variety expressed when grown and produced in Navarre.
