EL JAOUDA LIL INTAJ AL BIOLOGIE

Taddart — Taddart, Guercif,, Guercif

Early harvest means exactly that — picked before
the olives fully ripen, when the oil content is still building and the
polyphenol concentration is at its peak.

Our Story

The window lasts only a few weeks each November. Miss it, and
the character of the oil changes completely.

This oil is made from Picholine Marocaine olives harvested in
the first weeks of the season, pressed within 24 hours of picking at a stone
mill in the Guercif region. The result is intensely green in color, vivid and
almost peppery on the palate, with a sharp bitterness at the back of the throat
that olive oil professionals call "desirable bite" — a direct marker
of high polyphenol content.

Taste: Fresh-cut grass, green tomato, artichoke, with a
peppery finish that lingers.

Best used for: Finishing drizzle over grilled
vegetables, white fish, legume dishes, and fresh bread. Not for high-heat
cooking — the character is in the raw oil.

Acidity: Below 0.3% (early harvest typical)|Polyphenols:
