Product Description

Robust Intensity

This consistent award winner displays hints of green almond,  fresh cut grass and savory herb with artichoke and a lingering floral finish.

Our Galega Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Portugal is a smooth, mild oil known for its delicate flavor and balanced character. Made from traditional Galega olives, this EVOO offers a softer profile with subtle notes of ripe fruit and a gentle finish.

This versatile olive oil is perfect for everyday cooking, salads, light sautéing, and finishing dishes where a milder olive oil is preferred. Its approachable flavor makes it an excellent choice for those who enjoy a smooth, less intense olive oil.

At Blue Ridge Olive Oil Company, we carefully select our extra virgin olive oils for freshness and quality to ensure a consistently excellent flavor experience.

Our partner producer (SAOV) in Portugal is using a high vacuum during malaxation to remove all of the oxygen in this processing stage where the oil spends the most time and is most prone to oxidation. This cutting edge and very technical method preserves the phenolic content, the overall chemistry plus the flavor characteristics while reducing other oxidation markers.
