"Novello" means "first harvest new" olive oil.
100% native Tondaiblea variety
It is made from olives that are still green during the first three days of harvest in late September.
Because it is unfiltered, it is a cloudy, fresh oil that still retains finely ground fruit pulp.
Aroma of green tomatoes and young grass. Strong spiciness and bitterness.
Foods that go well with it include toasted bread, grilled meat, saury, roasted sweet potatoes, matsutake and shiitake mushrooms, bean soup, and anchovy pasta.
Harvesting is still done entirely by hand.
By using wooden ladders to work at the highest points of the tree, all work is done by hand.
This allows for harvesting without causing unnecessary damage or stress to either the olive trees or the fruit.
The best olives to make the tastiest oil are those that are beautiful and green, not yet fully ripe.
After extraction, the oil that will become Novello is immediately bottled and sent to Japan by air as new oil "Novello" without filtering.
[Difference from year-round olive oil]
◆Year-round olive oil◆
After squeezing, the oil is filtered and stored in a tank.
After allowing the fine olive flesh and skin to settle naturally,
The clear supernatant is then bottled.
Letting it sit for about two weeks will allow it to mellow and come together.
This results in a well-balanced flavor.
◆Novello (new oil)◆
The freshly pressed oil is bottled as is.
A fresher, spicier, more bitter and spicy flavor.
You can taste it directly.
You'll also be able to taste the fresh, green flavor you get when you buy green tomatoes or young grass.
Novello contains fine fruit pulp and skin mixed into the oil,
The flavor changes easily and it is not suitable for long-term storage.
Therefore, you can only enjoy freshly squeezed juice during this period.
We want to deliver freshly made products to you as soon as possible.
