A L'Olivier Haute Provence AOP Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Tasting Notes from the Curator

A L’Olivier Haute Provence AOP Extra Virgin Olive Oil is described as lightly smoky with hints of lemon and apple. These aromas are also present on the palate, blending nicely with bitter notes of fresh grass, recalling garden cress and mustard leaves. This well-balanced oil offers a distinguished, lasting peppery finish.

Preparation

It can be used to flavor a wide variety of preparations superbly. Use it to dress green salads, to make vinaigrette or crunchy vegetable tartare. It works just as well for cooking meat, fish, or dishes containing rice or quinoa. This oil also pairs nicely with sherry vinegar, fig-infused vinegar or a white balsamic vinegar.

Cold Extracted

This extra virgin olive oil is made from the finest aromatic herbs that nature has to offer. It adopts the cold extraction technique upon harvest of olives along the Baux de Provence Valley. This technique means a lower production for the same amount of olives but ensures a much higher quality of the oil. It also ensures that the aroma that adds character to the oil remain unchanged throughout the process.
