OLIVE OIL GIFT BASKET CONTENT
ARBEQUINA 100% ORGANIC EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL (750 ML)
Harvester : Set d'Oli.
The olive: Arbequina is the most popular variety in Catalonia, although it is also grown in Aragón. It originally comes from the town of Arbeca, in the province of Lérida. The trees have vigorous crowns and bear a small, glossy brown fruit.
The olive oil: light, sweet and with a delicate texture. The flavour is fruity, with hints of apple, banana and almond. Very fresh and not at all bitter or peppery, it's the perfect complement to delicate dishes, both hot and cold, as its flavour doesn't overpower the taste of other ingredients.
OLIVES, ARBEQUINA VARIETY (220 G) (220 G)
Harvester : Fruita Blanch.
Description: In Spain, no gourmet snack spread is complete without a bowl of olives! We chose these Arbequina olives, one of the smallest, most exquisite varieties, because they are preserved using traditional manual techniques that maintain their intense flavour and natural properties: olives, water, salt, aromatic herbs and nothing else.
Serving suggestions: the olives are ready to eat and do not require refrigeration, although they should be kept in the fridge once open.
Our Treasure: ARBEQUINA 100% ORGANIC EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL (50 ml)
In our olive oil hamper, a treasure is hidden in a grey carton box which colour and appearance symbolize the kind of ground where our olive trees are growing.
Inside what looks like a bottle of perfume you will find a pure Arbequina organic olive oil produced by our artisan, obtained after a meticulous selection process of the very best arbequinas’ fruits at the ideal point of ripeness in his fields, pressing them as soon as they have been harvested.
Just smell it and you will understand why we call it a treasure, hidden in an elegant bottle of perfume.
The secrets of organic extra virgin olive oil
♦ The land: soil quality and climate are important factors for determining the aromatic intensity of olive oil. Depending on these conditions, an oil will offer different aromas, textures and flavours to delight all five senses.
♦ The artisan: Set d'Oli is a family-owned press with an olive plantation in southern Catalonia that practises organic agriculture. Harvesting, production, bottling... they do everything themselves, the old-fashioned way, and the result is this 100% natural olive oil.
♦ The harvest: olives are harvested from the trees in autumn as they ripen and hand-pressed within 24 hours of being picked to keep the fruit from fermenting, which would affect the quality of the oil.
♦ Designation of origin: extra virgin olive oil is the best kind; it is pure olive juice that has not been subjected to any chemical alterations or filters.
♦ Fruity flavour: the colour of olive oil ranges from pale yellow to intense green, but this tells us nothing about its aroma and flavour, which we can only discover by tasting it.
♦ Storage: olive oil is a natural product, and in order to preserve its natural properties it must be stored in a cool, dry place, protected from direct sunlight and tightly sealed to avoid contact with the air.
