Istarska Bjelica Monovarietal
Organic

Ipša Istarska Bjelica is a golden green monocultivar extra virgin olive oil from the rare Istarska Bjelica olives, hand-picked in October and produced organically. It has an intense aroma featuring freshly cut grass, artichokes, mint, and rosemary, evolving into notes of green olives, chicory, almonds, and subtle black pepper, with a mildly bitter and piquant profile. This versatile oil perfectly complements red meat, barbecued fish, mature cheeses, salads, and even chocolate cake, mousse, or ice cream.

Oil Character

Freshness & season

Harvest freshness

Harvest timing helps you judge an oil's age, while filtration and release style affect how quickly it is best enjoyed.

Why choose it

Choose a recent, clearly dated release when you want the most vivid expression of its aromas and flavour.

Worth knowing

A harvest date does not reveal how the oil was stored, so date is an important signal rather than a guarantee of condition.

Product informationHarvested 15 October 2025
Place & provenance

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Livade, Istria County, Croatia.

Why choose it

Choose a clearly identified origin when local identity, traceability and connection to a particular growing area matter to you.

Worth knowing

Origin can make an oil distinctive, but does not by itself guarantee quality or a particular flavour.

Listed originLivade, Istria County, Croatia
Harvest & milling

How it was made

The olives are listed as being harvested manually.

Why choose it

These practices may appeal when you value hands-on harvesting, cooler fruit handling or direct estate control over milling.

Worth knowing

They describe production methods, not elapsed harvest-to-mill time or proof that the finished oil is fresher or better.

Product informationHand picked
Olive composition

Single variety listed

The latest release lists Istarska Bjelica as its only recorded cultivar.

Why choose it

A release listing one cultivar is useful when you want to explore that variety's typical character.

Worth knowing

One listed cultivar does not record a percentage, so it should not be treated as proof of 100% composition without a source saying so.

Release dataIstarska Bjelica
Farming & certification

Growing choices

The oil records certification to an organic production standard.

Why choose it

Choose the practices and certifications that best match your environmental and farming priorities.

Worth knowing

Farming method and certification may guide values-based choices, but do not automatically determine flavour, freshness or nutritional value.
