Tasting notes
The same cold-extracted organic oil as the Green, in a bottle you won't want to throw out. Green and herbaceous with a clean pepper finish. Medium intensity.
How to use it
This is the bottle you put on the table. Finish dishes in front of guests. Give it as a gift with a loaf of bread and a bag of sea salt. When it's empty, keep the bottle. The azulejo design is printed on the glass, not a label.
Pairs with
A cheese board, grilled bread, roasted peppers, a simple risotto, gifting to someone who cooks.
Try this: Bruschetta al pomodoro
Dice 4 ripe tomatoes and toss with 3 tablespoons of Limited Edition, a handful of torn basil, 1 minced garlic clove and salt. Let it sit 15 minutes. Grill thick slices of bread until charred at the edges, rub with a cut garlic clove, spoon the tomatoes on top and drizzle with more oil. Eat standing up.

How to use it
Finish
Heat off, oil on. A spoonful over soup, grilled fish, pasta, sliced tomatoes or burrata. This is where the Green and Limited Edition earn their keep.
Cook
Roast, sauté, pan-fry. Real extra virgin holds up to everyday heat better than people think. The Origin tin lives next to the stove for exactly this.
Dip
Bread, a puddle of oil, flaky salt. If it tastes grassy, a little bitter and peppery at the back of your throat, that’s fresh oil doing its job. Pane e olio is the whole test.
