I promised some tasting notes a few weeks ago, but have just now had the time to actually go back and taste the oil. So, olive oil nerds, here you go:

On the nose this release of Verde has notes of artichoke, green grass, ripe olives and a faint hint of olive flower.

In the mouth, you’ll notice the smooth taste of ripe olives, green apple, white pepper and leafy green, herbaceous notes. There is a mild pungency with very little bitterness.

In a few words, this is a classic smooth Spanish style olive oil. Very easy to use, not “in your face,” and very versatile.

As a side note, this is the first oil that we have produced that contains our new varieties, Picual, Hojiblanca and Arbequina along with the classic Mission and Manzanillo.

Enjoy!
