The result is a harmonious balance of light smoke followed by the pepperiness typical of the arbequina varietal. A wonderful addition to anything from grilled meats to risotto, Manchego cheese, and deviled eggs. This oil adds a mild smokiness to any dish. Stretch your dollar and add flavor by incorporating O-Med arbequina EVOO into your recipe.
Owned and operated by the Garcia-Casas family in Acula, Andalusia, in southern Spain, O-Med have been harvesting their own olive trees for four generations and producing extra virgin olive oil for two. In 2005 they purchased a mill in order to produce the highest quality olive oil possible by controlling each step of the process from olive groves to mill to bottle. O-Med produces early harvest EVOO in order to preserve the best organoleptic properties in the oils. As farmers, sustainability is of foremost importance to O-Med where solar power and an incinerator which burns the olive pits produce 40% of the mill's energy needs. O-Med is a founding member of QvExtra, a seal which certifies quality level is higher than current legislative requirements.
