ElOlivo review:
We were thrilled to taste the Deortegas Farm's beautiful blend, which combines the most popular olive varieties in Spain. Needless to say, we were not disappointed. The oil has delightful aromas of olive leaf, green tomato, and green banana, with hints of sweet dried fruit. Upon tasting, we detected flavors of olive leaf, green tomato, banana, and fig, with a finish of green almond. This versatile oil can be used for frying, sautéing, finishing, or dressing. Use it to cook a hearty stew or drizzle it on your favorite fish, steak, or pasta dish. It also pairs wonderfully with rocket leaves and parmesan cheese on sourdough bread. As Deortega's tasting notes suggest, feel free to experiment with this oil. You won't regret it! Enjoy.
