Selection Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Quinta do Crasto: An exceptional olive oil of the highest quality.
The Quinta do Crasto Selection Extra Virgin Olive Oil impresses with its excellence and exceptional quality. This extra virgin olive oil presents itself as an intensely powerful and fascinatingly fruity product.
The olive oil is obtained from 100% Portuguese olives and is a prime example of natural purity and excellent taste. The olive groves of Quinta do Crasto are farmed organically and do not use pesticides or fertilizers. This makes them a premier source of high-quality olive oil. The selection of the Cobrançosa and Madural olive varieties and their mechanical extraction at low temperatures without chemical processes result in an extremely delicate and healthy oil. Our recommendation: definitely try it.
The Selection Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Quinta do Crasto gives salads a special touch and refines sauces, soups, dips and many other dishes. But its full flavor is best enjoyed on its own, accompanied by fresh bread.
The olives are harvested mechanically using shakers and vibratory harvesters without causing any damage to the olive trees. The harvested olives are carefully packed in 25kg boxes and transported to the traditional oil mill. Olives that lie on the ground have no use for oil production. Mechanical extraction takes place at low temperatures, often below 30 °C, using conventional grinding mills. This is complemented by a two-phase, continuous extraction, followed by a decantation process that takes 2 to 3 months.
