This Coratina is absolutely exceptional and a robust olive oil lovers dream. It has captured the robust, herbal flavours from early harvested fruit. The aroma is like a bouquet of freshly picked culinary herbs.
The oil’s balance is perfect, with extremely high fruitiness and pungency that complements its bitterness. This Cortina is complex, full-bodied, and has slightly nutty and buttery undertones. The dominating flavours include herbal grass, green tea, olive leaf, nettle, mint, cinnamon, and chili pepper. It also has a lovely persistent finish of black pepper and chili peppers.
This olive oil shines when used for cooking/roasting meats and vegetables. It is stunning for finishing on pastas, grains, and proteins as well.
