With a sophisticated packaging carefully designed for the holiday season, Adega de Borba Extra Virgin Olive Oil is presented in an elegant gift package, maintaining its fresh and slightly spicy flavour the Portuguese appreciate.
According to Márcia Farinha, Adega de Borba’s Marketing Director, “Adega de Borba’s Extra Virgin Oil is filled with tradition and it’s the perfect product to accompany the Christmas dishes. It is with great satisfaction that we see it playing a part in the Christmas celebrations of the Portuguese.”
This olive oil is full-bodied and slightly spicy, and at the same time elegant with hints of sweetness, freshness, unctuousness and bitterness with persistence in its delicate texture.
The olives come from the oldest olive groves in the region. Its extraction in the high maturation stage produces strong aromas and flavours. The aroma is of ripened fruits and dry fruits.
This olive oil was produced for cooking or to season raw foods. Adega de Borba Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a product for every occasion, completing the traditional flavours of the Christmas dishes.
