Az-Azeytun Arbosana grows in Batea, in the Terra Alta, and in this 5 L tin it comes in its most generous format. It is a young extra virgin olive oil with character, obtained directly from the olives and solely by mechanical means.
A single-variety Arbosana, a small olive that tends to give fresh, fruity oils. Five litres are the reserve of homes where people really cook: the tin stays in the pantry and the table cruet gets refilled.

What Az-Azeytun Arbosana is like in the glass
Nose

It usually comes in soft and fruity, with the lightness of a small olive, and lets itself be used without imposing on the dish.
Finish
The finish is fresh and clean, the kind that does not tire you even on the tenth spoonful.
Terra Alta, land of olive groves and vineyards
In Batea, in the heart of the Terra Alta, Abel Maijó inherited from his grandfather the trade of working the land, the vines and the olive trees. He studied viticulture and decided to make his own oil under the name Az-Azeytun, in the Terres de l’Ebre.
Az-Azeytun Arbosana is the result: a young extra virgin with character, from a variety of the area, made solely by mechanical means. Comercial Az-Azeytun XCIII SL bottles it in Batea.

Why Az-Azeytun Arbosana in a 5 L tin
The tin shields the oil completely from light, which matters in a large container that takes time to use up. Keep it somewhere cool and close it tightly after each use.
It is the pantry format: refill an everyday cruet from it and keep the rest closed. For anyone who cooks with a lot of oil, 5 L means not restocking every few weeks.
