(COSTE) Las Cuadras extra virgin olive oil 100% arbequina

For SIÓS EVOO olives are harvested the first week of October and for Las Cuadras EVOO the olives are harvested one month later. When the EVOO is harvested in late September or early October, it comes from greener olives, which results in a lower yield and a higher price. Its flavor is more herbaceous, with a slightly bitter and peppery taste, which is highly valued by experts for its quality and higher nutritional properties. Las Cuadras EVOO, on the other hand, is harvested one month later, from more mature olives, giving it a higher yield and a sweeter taste. This higher yield allows us to extract more olive oil, which helps reduce its price. In essence, the difference between the two oils is minimal, but the yield is what causes the price variation.
