Scandalusia Limited Edition Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil - 250ml

A bold, early-harvest unfiltered Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) made in small batches from our finca in the Sierra de Cádiz, Andalucía. A separate micro-plot. A sharper harvest window. A bolder oil. This release, totaling roughly only 140 liters (560 bottles) total, is packaged in 250 ml and individually numbered. With a deeper green profile and a more assertive polyphenol punch, it functions almost like a vintage wine: intense, concentrated, unmistakably Andalusian. 

All olives are hand-picked in October 2025, cold-pressed at a local mill to ensure extra freshness, and crafted for high polyphenols and an intense rich aroma. This limited edition 250ml brings Scandalusia’s signature character, unapologetically strong, fresh and deeply green. It's composed of a mixture based on Picual (Marteña) olives with hints of Arbequina and Gordal Sevillanas to create a structured EVOO with an almost sweet, floral roundness and a soft Andalusian character from the Gordal olives. 

Only a few hundred bottles exist. When they are gone, the next harvest will tell a different story.
