Our Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil uses Arbequina olives which are grown on terraced groves in Lleida, Catalonia. The olives are picked prior to the general harvest and are then crushed by fourth generation olive growers using traditional granite stones. Using olives that are not fully mature produces a smaller yield of oil but with an intensified flavour and aroma. Early Harvest Extra Virgin Oil has notes of freshly mown grass at the front of the palette, followed by hints of almond and banana with a mild peppery finish. Belazu has been bringing you the best ingredients that are sourced from across the Mediterranean and Middle East since 1991. Started by two best friends Adam and George and a bucket of Provencal olives the aim has always remained the same, to bring the best cooks and ingredients together. Whether it is in store, online or in a restaurant the ingredient will always remain king.Great Taste Award * 2016, Stone-crushed, Cold extraction, UnfilteredFor more information about Belazu Ingredient Company visit www.belazu.com or ask us a question on social media @belazu_co
