Leleg Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 500ml – High Polyphenol, Cold Extracted

$45.00

Crafted for those who value purity, origin, and high nutritional quality, LELEG Early Harvest Memecik Extra Virgin Olive Oil delivers a bold and vibrant profile from one of Türkiye’s most distinctive olive-growing regions.

Produced from single varietal Memecik olives grown in the Milas / Bafa region, this early harvest olive oil is cold extracted below 27°C to preserve its natural antioxidants, fresh aroma, and complex flavour structure. Harvested while the olives are still green, it offers a more intense and characterful experience compared to standard ripe harvest oils.

This premium extra virgin olive oil stands out with its high polyphenol content (332 mg/kg), contributing to both its health benefits and its distinctive sensory profile. Expect a lively green aroma, pronounced bitterness, and a clean peppery finish — a signature of high-quality early harvest oils.

With a very low acidity level of 0.24%, it meets the highest standards of extra virgin classification, ensuring exceptional purity and freshness in every bottle.

Ideal for raw use where flavour matters most — drizzle over salads, vegetables, artisan bread, or use as a finishing oil to elevate gourmet dishes.
