Upupa
By Upupa
Upupa draws its name from the Eurasian hoopoe, a bird celebrated for its mystical and healing presence. This symbol of magic thrives in the olive groves of Lokvica, a Slovenian village nestled where the Adriatic Sea meets the Alpine air. The warmth of the Adriatic, the crisp Alpine breeze, the rugged Karst soil and the unique underground ecosystems of Karst caves shape the oil’s essence. These elements create an extra virgin olive oil of unparalleled character and purity.
