Extremely hot weather in summer and early fall caused olive trees in
our area to slow their production of oil which subsequently delayed
harvest until later than is typical. The result was lower than
average yields however more intense flavors than in prior years.
Nowhere is this impact as pronounced as in our Arbequina orchard.

Note on phenol levels: our local laboratory reports that historically
California Arbequina Olive Oils test at between 160 and 190 mg/kg
in total polyphenols. In 2016 our count was 242, and this year’s
harvest tested at a stunning 329 mg/kg in total polyphenols! This
level of nutrition is what contributes to the more intense and complex
green flavors present in this year’s crop. Please enjoy!
