One grove. One pressing. Under a hundred litres.

Extra virgin olive oil from a hectare and a half in the mountains of central Portugal. The two of us grow it, pick it by hand and bottle it — under a hundred litres a harvest.

The bottle

500ml, each one filled by hand.

A harvest gives us under a hundred litres, all of it off these seventy trees. Every bottle is spoken for one at a time, by the two of us, which is why you ask us for it rather than click a button.

Origin

A hectare and a half in the Serra da Estrela.

Everything we grow goes into one oil. It comes off seventy trees in the municipality of Fundão, in the foothills of the Serra da Estrela, and it is pressed once a year. Two varieties go into it: Galega for the fruit, Cordovil for the pepper.
