The koroneiki olive is a Greek variety, accounting for 2/3 of the country’s olive groves.

The oils of the Koroneiki variety have a high content of polyphenols which, as well as being associated with many health benefits as they are powerful antioxidants, also make the oil more stable as they slow down the oil’s natural oxidation process.

It’s a robust oil in terms of flavors. Fruity, with herbaceous and green apple notes, it also has a certain spiciness and pleasant bitterness.

Harvesting takes place in our olive grove, followed immediately by extraction, which is carried out using only cold mechanical processes (below 27ºC) in order to preserve all the beneficial properties of the oil.

Koroneiki Extra Virgin Olive Oil, cold extracted using only mechanical processes. Herdade da Bica Extra Virgin Olive Oil is made with total control of the quality of its fruit.

Since we don’t filter the oil, the cloudiness and some accentuation that may appear at the bottom of the container are natural phenomena of olive oil.
