This perfect combination is produced in their fields, thanks to the natural mix of cornicabra olives from their estates located in the Cabañeros Natural Park, Toledo. In the traditional dry farming system, most of the estates are located in the mountains, with wide planting frames and steep slopes. On rocky and poor soils where the best EVOOs are produced.
The cornicabra variety is very rustic and resistant to both cold and drought, a true fighting olive.
Aware of the importance of preserving the environment, they limit the use of chemicals and also provide organic matter to improve soil characteristics.
They also maintain vegetal cover in the center of the street.
Sitena is Exclusivity
They obtain a limited production from their own estates, where they control the quality from the field to the bottle.
The traceability monitoring throughout the extraction process leads them to obtain a traditional dry-farmed EVOO, high in polyphenols and with unique characteristics.
Tasting Note of Early Harvest 100% Organic EVOO
It presents a very balanced flavor with prominent green notes of almond and apple accompanied by a mix of aromas and flavors that resemble ripe fruits, tomato, and a slight taste and smell of aromatic herbs.
It conveys a great feeling of density in the mouth, being fruity and aromatic, while also presenting high levels of bitterness and spiciness, with a very balanced flavor.
It comes in an elegant 2-liter stainless steel tin to protect the EVOO from sunlight.
It is ideal to have at home for cooking (for those who want to take care of themselves and understand that olive oil must be of the highest quality) as well as for filling your oil dispenser to finish your dishes and salads.
The olive trees from which this wonderful olive juice is extracted are centuries old.
