Product Overview
LENTRISCA EVOO CRUSH DATE NOVEMBER 2022
Logging total phenol content of 709ppm, this antioxidant powerhouse is loaded with a whopping 189ppm of healthful Oleocanthal which lends this oils its powerful pepperiness. It is unique and complex with tropical fruit characteristics, a sweet berry and cream center and fiery Szechuan peppercorn finish/lingering spicy mouth feel.
Our partner producer in Portugal is using a high vacuum during malaxation to remove all of the oxygen in this processing stage where the oil spends the most time and is most prone to oxidation. This cutting edge & very techincal method preserves the phenolic content, the overall chemistry plus the flavor characteristics while reducing other oxidation markers.
