Organic, single-varietal extra virgin olive oil from the early harvest, sourced exclusively from our estates in Lleida. Made solely with Arbequina olives, in the region where this variety originated. Four generations of the Pons family have cultivated these calcareous soils at an altitude of 500 meters, under an extreme continental climate that defines the personality of our terroir, and the fifth generation now lends its name to this collection. The early harvest, between the end of September and the beginning of October, captures the fruit at its peak. On the nose, it expresses a green fruitiness dominated by freshly cut grass, floral notes, and tender almond. On the palate, fruity sweetness blends with an elegant bitterness and a clean spiciness, culminating in a long, vegetal finish. Especially recommended for use raw. Its balanced profile enhances fresh cheeses, raw cuts of fish, steamed vegetables, white meats, creamy rice dishes, or a good toasted artisan bread. Chefs and restaurant professionals in over 140 countries choose our Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil for its freshness, balance, and lingering aroma. The importance of polyphenols. We cold-extract the oil in our state-of-the-art mill, located next to the olive grove: the process begins less than 30 minutes after harvesting, preserving more than 300 mg/kg of polyphenols. With this figure, JANIROC Arbequina far exceeds the 250 mg/kg threshold set by Regulation (EU) 432/2012, allowing us to include the official declaration: "The polyphenols in olive oil contribute to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative damage." The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 20 g of olive oil (approximately one and a half tablespoons), as part of a varied and balanced diet.

Aroma : Fragrant, floral, and with a scent of fresh grass.

Cata : Delicate green fruitiness, well balanced and slightly pungent.

Intensity : ****

Pairings : Finishing oil, fish, seafood, salads and vegetables.
