Organic Garlic Olive Oil - Demeter

ORGANIC SEASONED OLIVE OIL – DEMETER
For this organic seasoned olive oil, Olival da Risca combines aromatic garlic with fine Portuguese olive oil to create a spicy and fresh composition. Absolutely no additional essential essences are added — 100% natural and 100% organic.
Based on years of experience, ripe olives and fresh garlic are cold-pressed together with great care. During this process, the naturally occurring essential oils from the garlic infuse the olive oil, giving it its distinctive, spicy note.
Ingredients: Olives, garlic (2.5%) from organic/biodynamic farming

TASTE
This olive oil impresses with its unique garlic aroma, offering a pleasant sharpness, mild bitter nuances, and an intense garlic flavor.

CULTIVATION / PRODUCTION
On 170 hectares of land, more than 35,000 olive trees — some up to 800 years old — thrive on the farm. The groves contain only Portuguese olive varieties such as Cobrançosa, Galega Vulgar, Cordovil, Galega Grada de Serpa, Gamenha, Verdeal, Carrasquenha, and Mançanilha. On the remaining 50 hectares, citrus fruits, herbs, and spices are also cultivated in Demeter organic quality.
During harvesting, the farm uses modern machinery that treats the trees and olives with exceptional care. The mill is located directly on the estate, ensuring an extremely short transport route — the freshly harvested Demeter olives are processed within four hours of picking to preserve maximum freshness and quality.
