Organic Chetoui Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Tunisia) – Robust

$24.95

Our Organic Chetoui Extra Virgin Olive Oil is one of the most powerful and antioxidant-rich olive oils in our collection. Produced from organically grown olives in Tunisia and harvested at peak freshness in November 2025, this remarkably robust oil showcases everything we love about high-phenolic extra virgin olive oil.

On the nose, Organic Chetoui is intensely aromatic with distinctive notes of fresh dandelion greens. The palate opens with vibrant bitterness and herbaceous complexity before finishing with subtle sweet berry notes and a lingering peppery sensation that signals the presence of naturally occurring antioxidants.

With an exceptionally high biophenol content of 733.3 ppm, this ultra-premium extra virgin olive oil delivers both bold flavor and outstanding freshness. Its robust structure makes it an excellent choice for those seeking authentic, early-harvest olive oil with pronounced character.

Organic Chetoui shines when drizzled over grilled vegetables, bean dishes, lentils, roasted potatoes, hearty soups, rustic breads, and Mediterranean-inspired meals. It also performs beautifully for sautéing and higher-heat cooking applications.

For olive oil enthusiasts seeking a robust, organic extra virgin olive oil with exceptional complexity and naturally high antioxidant levels, Organic Chetoui is a standout selection.
