An intensely green and highly complex Extra Virgin olive oil made from Hojiblanca and Picuda. Aromas and flavours include green olive, apple, tomato, freshly cut grass and fresh almond. Its powerful fruitiness is followed by distinct but balanced bitterness and a pronounced peppery finish with notes of white pepper.
Why this olive oil is special
Knolive Epicure is made for those who enjoy a powerful, green and complex Extra Virgin olive oil. It is produced from Hojiblanca and Picuda, two olive varieties closely associated with southern Córdoba. The olives are harvested very early in the season, when yields are still low but aroma, freshness and structure can be at their most expressive.
That very early harvest also explains the distinctive character reflected in our Olive Oil Guide: fruitiness 9, pepperiness 8 and complexity as high as 10. This is not a mild all-rounder, but an olive oil with tension, length and personality. It is precisely this combination of intense green aromas, balance and exceptional complexity that has earned Knolive Epicure a permanent place in our range.
Knolive comes from the area around Priego de Córdoba, in Andalusia's Sierras Subbéticas. This is one of Spain's best-known quality olive oil regions, characterised by elevated olive groves and significant differences between daytime and night-time temperatures. For Epicure, Knolive uses a blend of Hojiblanca and Picuda. The olives are harvested early and processed quickly to preserve as much of their fresh, green character as possible.
