Our Portuguese Fused Lemon Olive Oil is made with early harvest Arbosana olives and Eureka lemons sourced from the sunny Algarve. Our producer SAOV, takes the olives and the lemons and crushes both fruit at the same time, resulting in a citrusy fusion is floral, slightly sweet, and creamy. This fused oil is produced twice a year, in line with the harvests of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The flavor may differ based on the time of purchase, as various varietals are utilized for each harvest period.
