Corinto High-Phenolic
Koroneiki · Nemoutiana
The outlier in the Corinto range: not Manaki but an early-October blend of Koroneiki and the rarer Nemoutiana, picked green specifically for phenolic content and positioned on the EU 432/2012 health claim. The 2025/26 figure is 639 mg/kg by NMR — published on a reseller’s listing and repeated by our partner, with the honest note that it declines over the oil’s life. Intense green fruit, pronounced bitterness and a long, hot finish, in the producer’s words. It has no competition record; it is sold on its number and its taste, and priced accordingly.
