Portugal
In Portugal, olive oil tells many stories.
Climate, soil, olive varieties and the knowledge of those who produce give each region its own character, and each oil an identity that begins long before it reaches the bottle.

Olives
Galega, Cobrançosa and Cordovil reveal different profiles of Portugal's olive heritage — from soft fruitiness to green intensity.
GalegaPortugal’s classic olive: a soft, fruity profile with apple or fig notes and a gentle sweetness that balances the blend.
CobrançosaA more intense, herbaceous olive: green freshness, structure, and a bitter–pungent balance that gives the oil presence.
CordovilThe Cordovil olive adds body and continuity to the blend: green notes and a steady structure, often linked to versatile table oils.More detail on request.
