Meet our new producer “Magna Olea”.

Located in Mirandela, Northern Portugal in the Vale de Madeiro. The farm is the result of the merger of two families with a long tradition, the Andrade and Gama families.

Magna Olea produces on a small scale and is known for its superior quality extra virgin olive oil. Magna Olea is among the best in the world. This was confirmed again in the New York International Olive Oil Competition ( NYIOOC ) where they won silver in 2020. We are therefore extra proud that Magna Olea has chosen to work exclusively with Pure Virge in the Netherlands.

The olive oil is produced from locally grown Cobrançosa olives and is cold extracted within 24 hours of harvest.

The main characteristics are aromatic fruitiness with green olives and fresh grass. Magna Olea has a soft bittersweet feeling to start and gives way to exotic fusion of flavors with notes of apple, banana and tomato, dry fruits (almond and walnut), ending with a long-lasting spicy finish.

Excellent for dipping and drizzling over freshly toasted bread and for finishing grilled vegetables and fish.
