• Extracted from single varietal Frantoio olives
• Pure Frantoio essence has been trapped within this golden delicious olive oil
• Savour layers of creaminess, notes of green grass, almonds, wildflowers and green apple
• Colour: Green with a golden tint
• Aroma: Fresh, grassy, and delicately nutty on the nose, with a subtle hint of green banana
• Flavour: An explosion of almond notes on the palate, which may be interpreted as a hint of marzipan. This is followed quickly by attractive notes of bitter almonds. Ideal pepper, or piquancy, is perceived as the oil passes into the throat, and is elegantly balanced. This results in a harmonious and delicate oil
• Best enjoy drizzled over seasonal salads or soaked up by chunks of fresh bread
• Ideal paired with gentler dishes like white fish
• Particularly well-suited to complement desserts — ice cream with lots of nuts, and even fruit salads (the tropical notes detected in the oil will delightfully enhance the fruity flavours, especially bananas)
