Sourced from Memecik type olives cultivated through sustainable agriculture in a single estate in Turkey's Aegean Region, this Early Harvest Premium Intense Extra Virgin Olive Oil exemplifies quality and authenticity. Harvested at the peak of ripeness, our olives undergo a cold-pressed extraction process using MoriTem technology. This method ensures the preservation of maximum nutritional values, allowing the oil to rest overnight before being meticulously filtered. Our Premium Memecik EVOO showcases a stunning emerald green color, a hallmark of its unique variety. The oil's robust flavor profile delivers a pungent and exquisite taste, with nuanced hints of artichoke, peas, black pepper, walnuts, asparagus, apple, banana, and red peppers. The flavor could be described as Intense & Peppery but not spicy. Perfect for dipping.
They are packed with healthy monounsaturated fats, which are beneficial for heart health by helping to reduce bad cholesterol levels. Memick olives also contain antioxidants, including vitamin E and polyphenols, which help protect cells from oxidative damage and reduce inflammation. Additionally, they provide important minerals such as iron and calcium, supporting overall body functions, and dietary fiber, aiding in digestive health.
