Isbilya Grand Coupage Intense, Case of 3 × 5 L

Grand Coupage Intense: the most rebellious extra virgin

Intense is Isbilya’s most structured blend, made from Arbosana and Koroneiki olives under the supervision of olive oil expert Maximiliano Arteaga. It is an extra virgin olive oil with a powerful flavour and an intense bitterness that dominates its pepperiness, made to transform everyday dishes with an oil that never goes unnoticed. Its painted bottle shields the oil from light and preserves its quality over time.

From the Aljarafe, in under two hours

Isbilya is born in Umbrete, in the Aljarafe district of Seville, from the groves of Aceites Yllanes Marini. The olive trees grow in continuous hedgerows, an arrangement that lets light reach all the foliage so the olives ripen evenly across the tree. Water and nutrients are measured with precision, and the harvest is brought forward to mid-October while the fruit is still green: yield is sacrificed, fruitiness is gained.

Picking takes place in the coolest hours of the day, using only olives taken from the tree, and the whole plantation can be harvested in a single day. In under two hours the olives reach the mill, where the oil is cold-extracted and bottled under an inert atmosphere to keep its aromas intact.
