This Coratina is absolutely exceptional and a robust olive oil lovers dream. It has the robust herbal flavours from early harvested fruit and the aroma is like a bouquet of freshly picked herbs.
The balance is perfect. It is extremely high in fruitiness and pungency and this compliments 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 and roasting. It is stunning for finishing roasted vegetables, meats, pastas, and grains.
