This blend of Coratina and Itrana olives is an intense green. It is herbaceous and fruity, with a pleasant hint of fresh grass, nuances of tomato leaf, and a pleasant fragrance of the artichoke heart. Careful blending of this EVOO gives it a strong sensation of olive bitterness and a pleasant spicy finish. The fruitiness of the olive is extremely clean.
