Tasting Notes:
This early harvest high phenol Velagosht is the first of its kind in North America. An extremely robust evoo with sweet floral, unripe green almond, and baking spice notes. Velagosht or, "the red olives of Berat" is an Albanian indigenous olive variety. First found in the village of Velagosht on the outskirts of Berat, a 2400 year old UNESCO world heritage city well known for its olives. We've worked very hard alongside our partner farm, Malasi Olive Oil, who processed this oil to our exacting methods. Lingering pepper and balanced bitterness.
