The term cultivar indicates the existing olive varieties and denotes the morphological characteristics, such as the tree, the leaf and the drupe, as well as the phenological ones, determining the fundamental phases of the plant such as flowering and maturation.
We could say that the cultivar, or the variety, of belonging, describes the DNA of the plant and consequently the extra virgin that will be born from that fruit.
Whether it is a medium or intense fruity, Coratina, a typical cultivar from Apulia and in particular from the land of Bari, gives strength and character to food. The scent that emanates is that of green olive and fresh grass with strong hints of artichoke, borage and almond.
Coratina is a firm oil. Its “strong” and “determined” character is given by the inimitable taste of freshly pressed olives, a well recognizable style given by the sharp and bitter but well-balanced notes.
The Coratina variety, is also known for the high number of polyphenols present compared to other varieties. These are very powerful antioxidants to give the spicy note typical of this oil.
