Oro del Desierto Arbequina 1 L is an organic extra virgin olive oil made exclusively from Arbequina olives. It comes from the Oro del Desierto olive groves in Tabernas, Almeria, where the producer family carries out their work in an especially arid environment, marked by scarce rainfall and high sun exposure.
Arbequina is a variety prized for producing aromatic, delicate oils with a distinct presence of fruity notes. The care of the organic olive grove and the attention paid to the fruit during its production make it possible to obtain a monovarietal that preserves this personality and offers a milder alternative to more intense varieties.
On the nose, it presents a pleasant and clean fruitiness, with notes reminiscent of apple and banana, accompanied by almond and subtle vegetal sensations. On the palate, it stands out for its fluid texture and a sweet and pleasant entry. The bitterness is very light and the spiciness appears discreetly, adding freshness and balance to the end of the tasting.
Due to its mildness, Oro del Desierto Arbequina is especially versatile in the kitchen. It is an excellent option for toast, salads, vegetables, fish, pasta, and sauces, as well as for accompanying ingredients with delicate flavors without masking them. It can also be used in baking as an alternative to other fats. The 1-liter format is especially practical for those who use organic EVOO regularly.
