Extra virgin olive oil, Selection Joel Robuchon, Masía El Altet, 0.5l

Joel Robuchon holds the most Michelin stars in the world and chose this olive oil as his product after tasting it in a Spanish restaurant. He declared it to be the best extra virgin olive oil he had ever tasted. The olives for this oil are harvested at the "PRE ENVERO" ripeness stage (when the olive juice has the best aroma and flavour) and are picked 7 days before the EVOO he tasted in the restaurant, the "High End" Masía El Altet EVOO. It has a very high content of polyphenols and antioxidants. This olive oil goes wonderfully with oily fish, red meat, aromatic cheeses, pasta and all kinds of vegetables, and many chefs also use it in desserts and baking. Since the seventeenth century, Masía El Altet has relied on vigorous and robust olive trees. These are able to withstand harsh weather and still produce the finest fruit. This philosophy has endured for generations right up to the present day, under the current owner Jorge Petit. Since 2006, Masía El Altet products have ranked among the best olive oils in the world. They receive the highest awards at the most prestigious international competitions.
