Olio Nuovo Manzanillo

It is official - the first press from California's 2025 Harvest has arrived. 

It was pressed with the Manzanillo olive and is hand harvested to make sure only the best olives are picked and pressed. That is amazing and dedication. Imagine going blueberry picking but gathering more than you can imagine because an olive doesn't produce that much juice, so you have to gather a lot of olives...by hand. 

Olio Nuovo meaning NEW OIL is meant to be consumed quickly and close to the Harvest Date which is in Early November in Northern California. The polyphenols are high and so is the flavor. The polyphenol level is not determined but the freshness and quality are what matter so use it fresh, it is not intended to coo with. You can use it as a finishing oil as you want to taste the difference and unique qualities. 

It will be fruity but have a pungent finish.
