At BellaTerra, we understand that many of our customers actively seek out high polyphenol extra virgin olive oil — not only for its bold, peppery flavour but also for the natural antioxidant properties that define truly exceptional EVOO.
That’s why we are proud to introduce BellaTerra Coratina Single Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil — a powerful, high polyphenol Italian olive oil from Puglia.
Crafted from 100% Coratina olives and cold extracted shortly after harvest, this olive oil is made for those who appreciate intensity, structure, and authenticity.

Why Coratina Is Naturally High in Polyphenols
Coratina is one of Italy’s most renowned olive varieties, celebrated for its naturally elevated polyphenol levels.
Polyphenols are the plant compounds responsible for:
The distinctive peppery finish at the back of the throat
Fresh, grassy, and green fruit notes
Stability and freshness
The bold character associated with premium extra virgin olive oil
If you feel that gentle peppery “kick” when tasting Coratina, that’s a sign of quality.
For customers who prioritise high polyphenol olive oil, Coratina is one of the most respected varieties available.
A Bolder Expression Than Our Mount Etna Oils
While our Mount Etna olive oils are admired for their balance and elegance, Coratina offers something different. It is:
More structured
More intense
More peppery
More expressive
This makes BellaTerra Coratina ideal for those who prefer a robust olive oil with real presence on the palate.
What Does High Polyphenol Olive Oil Taste Like?
Expect a delightful experience:
Aroma: Fresh grass, green almond, vibrant fruit
Taste: Bold and layered
Finish: Clean, warming peppery sensation
This is not a mild oil — it is confident and distinctive.
