LIMITED CLEAR Extra Virgin Olive Oil 8:26 Histories | Greece | 500 ml

Description

LIMITED CLEAR by 8:26 Histories is a premium Greek extra virgin olive oil, crafted from a natural blend of two native olive varieties: Manaki and Throubolia.

The olives are sourced from the island of Evia in Greece. Harvested early in October and subjected to careful selection, they are then pressed using cold-pressing methods.

The oil is extracted directly from the fruit using exclusively mechanical means.

Each harvest possesses its own distinct character. The natural proportions of Manaki and Throubolia varieties mean that the oil’s profile evolves subtly from year to year. This natural variability is one of LIMITED CLEAR’s greatest strengths – every edition tells the story of a particular harvest.

The declared acidity level of just 0.1–0.3% confirms the exceptional quality of the olives used and the precision of the production process.

Taste and Aroma

LIMITED CLEAR presents a mild to medium-intense flavor profile. It is fruity, delicately bitter, and finished with the pleasant, characteristic peppery notes of a fine olive oil.

Its aroma reveals notes of:

1. green vegetables,
2. fresh tomatoes and tomato leaves,
3. lemon and other citrus fruits,
4. olive leaves,
5. artichokes,
6. fresh herbs,
7. tea and thyme.

A beautifully balanced oil – expressive enough to enhance the flavor of beef, yet elegant enough to complement delicate fish, seafood, and vegetables without overpowering them.

How to Serve LIMITED CLEAR

The oil reveals its fullest aromatic profile when served raw or drizzled over a finished dish just before serving.

With Steaks and Meat

A few drops of this oil are best added to your steak after searing and resting. LIMITED CLEAR pairs beautifully with:

1. ribeye,
2. prime rib and beef tenderloin,
3. tomahawk and porterhouse steaks,
4. lamb,
5. beef tartare and carpaccio,
6. grilled poultry.

The oil’s fruity and herbal notes amplify the rich flavors of beef, while its gentle peppery finish replaces or complements freshly ground black pepper.

With Fish and Seafood

Ideal for shrimp, scallops, octopus, squid, and grilled fish. Simply combine it with lemon, sea salt, and fresh herbs.

In Everyday Cooking

LIMITED CLEAR is equally versatile:

1. over salads and grilled vegetables,
2. with burrata, mozzarella, and aged cheeses,
3. as a finishing touch to risotto, pasta, and soups,
4. with hummus and other vegetable spreads,
5. on fresh bread, focaccia, and grissini,
6. over yogurt, granola, and fresh fruit,
7. as an unexpected addition to desserts.

While the oil can be used for light cooking, its complex aromatic profile shines brightest when enjoyed raw.

Polyphenols in the Oil

The producer declares a polyphenol content that supports a health claim in accordance with Commission Regulation (EU) No. 432/2012.

Polyphenols in olive oil help protect blood lipids from oxidative stress.

This beneficial effect occurs when consuming 20 g of olive oil daily – approximately 1.5 tablespoons.
