Discover the Flavor of Our New Single Varietal Extra Virgin Olive Oils

Not all olive oils taste the same, and that’s especially apparent when you explore single varietal Extra Virgin Olive Oils.

Unlike blends made with multiple types of olives, a single varietal olive oil is produced from one olive variety, allowing its individual flavor, aroma, and characteristics to shine. Just as different grape varieties produce noticeably different wines, different olive varieties can produce oils ranging from delicate and floral to grassy, fruity, peppery, or intensely robust.

At F. Oliver’s, we love giving our customers the opportunity to experience those differences firsthand. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our newest collection of Single Varietal Extra Virgin Olive Oils, featuring six distinctive varieties ranging from mild to robust.

Our New Single Varietal EVOOs

Whether you already know exactly what you like in an olive oil or you’re ready to explore something new, our latest arrivals offer plenty of flavors to discover.

Frantoio – Mild Intensity

Our Chilean Frantoio Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a great introduction to the new collection. It offers juicy apple and floral notes on the nose, an herbaceous center, and a savory finish with lingering pepper. The olives were crushed in May 2026.

Its mild intensity makes Frantoio a versatile choice when you want fresh olive oil flavor without overwhelming the other ingredients in your dish.

Koroneiki – Mild Intensity

Another approachable option is our Chilean Koroneiki Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Floral notes give way to a creamy center with hints of green banana before finishing with delicate pepper and virtually no bitterness.

Koroneiki is an excellent choice for anyone who prefers a softer EVOO or is just beginning to explore the world of single varietals.

Coratina – Medium Intensity

For a little more intensity, try our Chilean Coratina Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This green Coratina features prominent Granny Smith apple and green almond notes followed by arugula on the finish. It also offers a distinctive Szechuan peppercorn sensation coupled with astringency.

Coratina sits right between our mild and robust selections, making it a great option when you want a noticeable EVOO flavor without choosing one of the collection’s boldest oils.

Arbosana – Robust Intensity

Ready to go bold? Our Chilean Arbosana Extra Virgin Olive Oil features fruity green banana notes followed by a pleasant floral finish, plenty of pepper, and balanced bitterness.

Its robust character makes it especially appealing for olive oil lovers who want the flavor of their EVOO to stand out rather than simply blend into a dish.

Picual – Robust Intensity

Our dry-farmed Chilean Picual Extra Virgin Olive Oil delivers a powerful sensory experience. Dry herb, anise, and stone fruit come together before giving way to a balanced yet lingering finish.

Picual is a fantastic option for anyone who appreciates complex, savory flavors and an olive oil with plenty of personality.

Barnea – Robust Intensity

Rounding out the collection is our early-harvest Barnea Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Peru. It begins with notes of unripe pear, followed by a creamy center and pleasing fennel notes. A balanced peppery finish completes its distinctive flavor profile.

Barnea offers a particularly interesting combination of fruity, creamy, savory, and peppery characteristics for adventurous olive oil lovers.

Which Single Varietal Will You Try First?

Part of the fun of single varietal olive oil is discovering just how different one olive can taste from another.

Start mild with the floral and creamy Koroneiki, explore the apple and green almond character of medium-intensity Coratina, or jump straight into one of our robust varieties like Arbosana, Picual, or Barnea.

Better yet, try several and conduct your own olive oil tasting at home. You may be surprised by how quickly you begin recognizing the fruity, floral, herbaceous, bitter, and peppery characteristics that make each variety unique.
