The flagship of Buta Assos and one of very few oils made from Hanım Parmağı, an olive identified in the Ezine district of Çanakkale in 2014 and registered as a variety in 2017 — about five hundred trees stand mixed through the Kulfal grove. Picked entirely green, ultra-early, and pressed the same day on the estate’s Mori-Tem line. The producer describes refreshing, fruity, grassy aromas and an exceptionally smooth palate, and “remarkably high” polyphenols without publishing a figure. Sold filtered and unfiltered.

Where it's from

Locator map: Ayvacık, Çanakkale, North Aegean, Türkiye

Ayvacık is the district behind the ancient city of Assos on the Çanakkale coast, facing Lesbos. Hanım Parmağı — “lady’s finger” — is a local olive the producer calls ancient Anatolian and the registry calls a 2017 variety; both can be true.
