For Ana Carrilho, Olive Oil Production Director, ‘this is an olive oil from the Alentejo, from olive trees planted over the years, olive trees that teach and inspire us so much every day. The juice they provide, full of health and flavour, brings back memories of so many sweet and savoury dishes. And yet, it reminds us of the simplicity of certain moments like dipping bread in olive oil and tasting it’. 

This new Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil represents its territory of origin – the Alentejo. It is smooth and harmonious, with a good balance of delicate aromas, typical of Alentejo olives. Produced mostly with the Galega olive variety, the oldest in Portugal, it is very versatile in the kitchen, either for cooking or finishing dishes. 

The Esporão olive oil range also includes: Virgin, Extra Virgin, Organic Extra Virgin (the new addition), DOP Norte Alentejano, Cordovil,  Galega, Selecção, Olival dos Arrifes Organic and Quinta dos Murças Organic Extra Virgin. The whole range has the unique and differentiating characteristics of being produced with 100% local olives and in a 100% sustainable way.
