Single-varietal organic extra virgin olive oil from an early harvest, sourced exclusively from our estates in Lleida, Catalonia. Produced entirely from Arbequina olives. Five generations of the Pons family have cultivated these calcareous soils at 500 metres altitude, under an extreme continental climate that defines the personality of our terroir. This environment imprints a unique character on the fruit, captured with precision through an early harvest in early October.
Tasting notes
On the nose, it expresses an intense green fruitiness dominated by green apple, freshly cut grass and tender almond.
On the palate, a fruity sweetness blends with an elegant bitterness and a clean peppery finish that lingers in a long, vegetal aftertaste.
Pairing
Especially recommended for raw use. Its balanced profile enhances fresh cheeses, raw fish, steamed vegetables, white meats, creamy rice dishes or a good toasted artisan bread.
Chefs and food service professionals in over one hundred countries choose our Arbequina EVOO for its freshness, balance and aromatic persistence.
The importance of polyphenols
We extract the oil cold-pressed, without added water, in our state-of-the-art mill located next to the olive grove. The entire process begins within 30 minutes of harvest, preserving over 300 mg/kg of polyphenols.
With this figure, JANIROC Arbequina significantly exceeds the 250 mg/kg threshold set by Regulation (EU) 432/2012, allowing us to include the official EFSA health claim:
Olive oil polyphenols contribute to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress, as part of a varied and balanced diet.
For this benefit to be effective: 20 g daily (approximately one and a half tablespoons).
