Origin of raw materials
Discover the Essence and Origin of the Flavors
The PACK 3 Olive Oils with Peppers – Colorful Christmas Trees Edition is born in the heart of the Alentejo, a land where olive oil is more than food: it is a symbol of heritage and identity. Among golden plains and century-old olive groves, extra virgin olive oil is crafted with artisanal precision and deep respect for nature, preserving ancient knowledge that continues to live on Portuguese tables across generations.
The olives from the Cobrançosa and Galega varieties, handpicked and cold-extracted, give rise to olive oils with an intense aroma and velvety texture. These oils serve as the base for three distinct versions — with green pepper, chilli, and black pepper — reflecting the perfect balance between the authentic flavor of the Alentejo and the intensity of spices. A fusion that honors Portuguese spirit and the art of seasoning with soul.
Alentejo: Land of Olive Oil and Tradition
Alentejo is the birthplace of Portuguese olive oil and one of the largest producers in the Iberian Peninsula. Its hot, dry climate combined with mild winters creates the perfect conditions for slow and balanced olive ripening. The region’s poor, stony soils force olive trees to root deeply, resulting in fruits that are more concentrated and full of flavor.
Production follows sustainable and respectful practices: manual harvesting, immediate milling, and cold extraction ensure the preservation of aromas, antioxidants, and the natural quality of the fruit. The result is an extra virgin olive oil with green, smooth, and fruity notes that reflect the authentic character of the Alentejo people and land.
Portuguese Varieties that Give Body to the Flavor
The Cobrançosa and Galega olive varieties are jewels of Portuguese olive-growing heritage. Their combination is responsible for the perfect harmony that defines the olive oils in this pack — a union of strength, delicacy, and aromatic complexity.
- Cobrançosa: A robust and distinctive variety that produces intense, fruity oils with notes of green grass, olive leaf, and bitter almond. Its strong profile adds structure to the olive oils with chilli and black pepper, creating enveloping and persistent flavors.
- Galega: One of Portugal’s oldest and most cherished varieties, known for its natural smoothness and sweetness. It produces balanced olive oils with hints of apple and dried fruits, bringing elegance and harmony to the olive oil with green pepper. It is the delicate side that completes Cobrançosa’s strength.
From the fusion of these two varieties comes an excellent, balanced, and versatile extra virgin olive oil — one that enhances the flavor of the peppers and expresses the true character of the Alentejo.
The Ancient Olive Oil Tradition in Portugal
The connection between Portugal and olive oil dates back to ancient times. Olive trees were brought by Mediterranean peoples and found a perfect home in Portuguese soil. In the Alentejo, olive cultivation became a part of daily life and local identity, shaping the rhythm of rural life and the flavor of national cuisine.
Today, Portugal is recognized as one of the world’s leading producers of extra virgin olive oil, blending ancestral methods with modern technology. The Alentejo region continues to lead this legacy, turning each harvest into a testament to the dedication of its producers. The PACK 3 Olive Oils with Peppers – Colorful Christmas Trees is an heir to this history — a tribute to the past and a celebration of the present.
Olive Oil as a Symbol of Portugal
More than a condiment, olive oil is a link between generations and a reflection of the Portuguese way of life. It represents balance between land and people, patient work, and the joy of sharing. In every drop, it carries the flavor of the Alentejo and the essence of a country that sees olive oil as one of its greatest treasures.
Choosing Portuguese extra virgin olive oil is to honor a culture of authenticity and tradition. This PACK 3 Olive Oils with Peppers – Colorful Christmas Trees Edition expresses that heritage in a unique way — uniting art, flavor, and emotion in a gift that celebrates Christmas and the pride of being Portuguese.
