Focusing on delicate taste and aroma A special blend olive oil that no one else can imitate Palacio Marques de Viana has been involved in olive oil production for over 200 years in the Andalusia region of Spain, spanning generations. The 'Sublime Early Harvest Blend' is made by selecting early-harvest olives harvested in October and nearly fully ripe olives harvested two weeks later, blending three varieties: Albequina, Piqual, and Royal varieties. This is a one-of-a-kind olive oil blended with a blend that other brands cannot imitate. It vividly expresses the aromas of albequina varieties like chicory and herbs, the green flavors of picual eucalyptus and green apples, while adding the flavors of royal varieties to create the taste. As a result, it features a smooth yet bold mouthfeel with a balanced blend of greenness and sweetness, along with a fruity aroma. ● Three types of olives blended by artisans This olive oil is blended by master blenders who have mastered blending techniques at Scotland's top whisky distilleries, analyzing its taste and aroma. Each ingredient is adjusted every year, resulting in a delicate flavor with consistent quality variation. ● Thorough quality control to maintain freshness We are especially particular about quality control, managing 100% of the entire process from harvest to shipment. Using a dedicated harvester, olives are harvested quickly and carefully to avoid damaging the fruit, and within three hours after harvest, the oil is pressed cold-pressed (low temperature, low pressure). It does not overpower the original, powerful flavor of olives. Cold pressing is an old-fashioned method that most manufacturers no longer use because it reduces the amount of oil available for extraction, which is labor-intensive and costly. The pressed olive oil is temporarily stored in stainless steel tanks maintained at a constant temperature. Afterwards, bottled just before shipment helps maintain the freshly squeezed state. To prevent damage from light, use dark-colored bottles with high blackout properties. Furthermore, by injecting nitrogen, it completely blocks air from the air to prevent oxidation. ● Awards At 'Olive Japan,' the world's largest international olive oil contest, it has won consecutive gold awards since its first entry in 2014, and received the top prize in 2016, earning high praise among food professionals and proving its excellence.
