Category: carapelli unfiltered organic extra virgin olive oil
OLIVE OIL FROM LIGURIA ITALY: Cultivar Ogliarola-Taggiasca is an Italian olive oil from Liguria, Italy, imported and delivered fresh to you. Due to recent weather conditions, there was only a small yield of Taggiasca olives this year, so we have created this delicious blend of Taggiasca and Ogliarola olives. It is our belief that high-quality ingredients make for the best product, and we will never compromise on the outstanding flavor of our olive oils.
Milling the olives within 24 hours of picking or less results in high Polyphenols content (antioxidants) you can taste, and Low Acidity levels. Olive trees grow on terraced land on very steep hills and cliffs overlooking the Mediterranean Sea in Liguria, Italy- the climate and sea influence the oil's wonderful taste and aroma. The taste is delicate, typical of the Taggiasca Cultivar, and it's excellent with every dish, particularly with fish and salads.

The climate and sea influence the oil's wonderful taste and unique aroma.
