The Frantoio variety is native to the region of Italian Tuscany and the good news is that it has taken a great root in our crops of the Loma de Baeza, which gives it some harsh overtones. This mixture produces a unique extra virgin olive oil. It is warm, dry and austere; ideal for those who feel passion for the taste of a good oil…
Strong and deep in the mouth, it does not leave indifferent, with its intense bitterness and spiciness that combine perfectly with the flavors of raw nuts. These flavors are long-range and permeate the memory of the autumn aroma.
Tasting notes
Frantoio Variety
On the nose there are records of banana peel and green apple; but, without a doubt, the undisputed protagonist is the bitter almond that defines and represents to a high degree the aroma of this oil.
Claramunt Frantoio Extra Virgin Olive Oil is characterized by its intense force in mouth. In its attributes, intense bitterness prevails over the spicy, a revolution of force that needs a harmonic pairing to make way and enhance the flavors of the food it accompanies. A real gentleman.
Other campaigns the bitter and spicy are presented with high intensity that makes it complex oil. If that complexity is balanced we will have a round, superb oil.
