Buža Monovarietal
Organic

Mate Viola Tonda is a medium fruity extra virgin olive oil from the native Buža (Busa) variety, harvested from 1st to 13th October 2025 in Zambratija, Istria, Croatia. It features a green and fresh fruitiness of medium intensity, with aromas of almond, apple, banana and subtle floral notes. The palate opens sweetly, followed by a harmonious balance of bitter and spicy sensations, with elegant, persistent notes of almond, medicinal herbs, pepper and thistle. Its fresh, daring profile pairs lightly with any gourmet preparation.

Oil Character

Freshness & season

Harvest freshness

The harvest date is disclosed on the bottle or product information, making the release easier to date and compare.

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 informationHarvest date disclosed
Place & provenance

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Zambratija, 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 originZambratija, Istria County, Croatia
Harvest & milling

How it was made

The olives are listed as being milled at the producing estate or farm.

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 informationProcessed on-site
Olive composition

Single variety listed

The latest release lists Buža 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 dataBuža
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.
