Romanico is the general brand for the oils produced on the Agroles Estate by the largest co-operative in the Les Garrigues region of Catalonia. Based in Borges Blanques, this estate serves 42 primary co-operatives with around 6000 families in total. The land here varies from the rolling hills of the lower valleys with vineyards and tidy olive groves to the steep-sided ridges higher up. Up there the olive trees grow in terraces and the countryside is much wilder in character.

Some of the olive trees are as much as 150 years old. Others are very new, often planted between the rows of older trees after the installation of drip irrigation allowing for more intense cultivation. Arbequina is virtually the only variety planted here and it has a long history in the area. One of the Agroles' primary co-operatives is at Arbeca to the north east of Borges Blanques and the name of the town is thought to be associated both with the Moorish settlement and with the local olive variety. Indeed there is some speculation that this variety came originally from North Africa.

Romanico Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced near Arbeca, the most arid territory in Catalunya, Spain. Arbeca is the village in the region that gives the namesake to this variety of olive. The olives that survive the cold weather in winter and drought in summer are the key ingredient to this outstanding olive oil.

Nuts, then wet grass and herbs followed by a touch of lemon start the aromas of this excellent oil. This is followed by light citrus fruits and more herbs with sorrel and watercress. Quite strong pepper kicks in and out leaving a long herby and lemon aftertaste.

Each tin of Romanico Extra Virgin Olive Oil contains 3L.

Founded in 1867 in Saint-Petersburg, Kusmi Teas are faithful to the spirit of the firm P.M Kousmichoff, supplier of the tsars of ancient Russia. In 1917 when the Revolution started in Russia, anticipating a disaster, the eldest Kusmichoff son transferred a part of his fortune to the London office and then created the Kusmi Tea company in France, based in Paris at 75 avenue Niel, where the company still has its workshop and boutique.

Kousmichoff has been carrying on the same tradition of serving connoisseurs and gourmets, combining discerning taste and creativity.
