Novavera Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil – Ayvalık Region

Novavera Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced from olives grown in our olive groves located in the Ayvalık region, one of the most renowned olive-growing areas in Turkey.

The olives are carefully harvested using branch shakers without being damaged, then transported within minutes to Novavera’s Ayvalık facilities, certified with BRC and ISO 22000 standards. There, they are processed using cold pressing methods to ensure superior quality olive oil.

This extra virgin olive oil has a maximum free acidity of 0.4%, reflecting the high quality of the olives and the care taken during cultivation and production.

Cold Pressing & Quality

At Novavera, temperature is controlled at six different stages throughout the process, from olive to oil. The olive paste is kept below 22°C, ensuring true cold pressing.

This method preserves the natural phenolic compounds found in olives, which are responsible for the antioxidant properties and nutritional benefits of olive oil.

Tasting Experience

A high-quality olive oil should reflect freshness and naturalness while offering a pleasant sensory experience.

When tasting the oil and gently inhaling, you may feel a slight peppery sensation in the throat and on the palate. The herbal notes, mild bitterness, and peppery finish come from polyphenols, indicating a high level of natural antioxidants.
