Organic extra virgin olive oil from L'Albagés (Lleida) produced with Arbequina olives and protected under Les Garrigues Designation of Origin. The olives are harvested early and pitted before going through the 10 classic stages of olive oil production. On average, 12 kg. of Arbequina olives are needed to obtain 1 litre of Elixir Pitted BIO.
On the nose it is an intense green fruity oil with fresh and herbaceous touches and notes of green leaf, artichoke, mint and green banana peel. On the palate it has a smooth and light texture, with a medium bitterness and moderate spiciness very well balanced and a fruity finish with almond aftertaste. It is a very surprising oil, as it has a very marked flavour and aroma for the Arbequina variety.
Food pairing: Bread with tomato, eggs, seafood, white asparagus, pasta with tomato, fruit salads, roasted vegetables and soft cheeses.
