About As Pontis Olive Oil:
As Pontis olive oil is a single varietal organic extra virgin olive oil obtained from the autochthonous Manzanilla Cacereña olives. Manzanilla Cacereña olives are cultivated exclusively on the region Sierra de Gata-Hurdes, north of Extremadura. The distinctive feature of this high quality EVOOs is owing, in no small part, to the careful treatment of Manzanilla Cacereña olives, being both very fruity and more resistant to olive oil oxidation - which keeps the acid/oxidation level very low.
As a result, As Pontis olive oil is a slightly sweet extra virgin olive oil with great balance between bitterness and pungency. It's characterized by its fruity intensity with remarkable banana, apple and freshly cut grass aromas, and its greenish-gold color.
