LA ESPAÑOLA - Olive Oil Made from 100% Spanish Olives. 200 ml Spray

Product Information

Extra virgin olive oil: This is made from the first cold pressing of olives, and is the highest quality olive oil. It has a strong, fruity flavour, and is great for drizzling over salads and cooked foods, or for dipping bread into. If cooked with the flavour can be altered, so is best not heated. But I am recommending the handy olive oil spray format, which is made to the highest quality from Spanish olives, combining refined olive oils and virgin olive oils. Every time you use it, it gives a consistent and measured spray at less than 4 calories, and each bottle should give you 800 sprays. And the cap (which I know looks a bit like those on a shaving mousse) is specially designed to have a triple action – spray, stream and drip which is pressure sensitive. How clever. Three ways to spray (and not pour). Greek extra virgin olive oil: Greek olive oil is light green in colour and has a mild flavour. It has a peppery taste and comes from olives grown in the Kalamata region of Greece. Use for drizzling over traditional Greek salad with feta cheese. A strong, spicy finish doesn’t mean an olive oil is bad or off, but a stale or bitter taste indicates that the oil is past its best. While old olive oil won’t harm you, it isn’t very pleasant to consume and should be avoided. We offer some wonderful Spanish cheeses such as manchego matured for 12 months. But we don’t stop there. If you like manchego, you may enjoy more of Spain’s wonderful cheeses, such as the smoked San Simon or the ever popular Spanish Blue which offers a strong and pungent flavour for blue cheese lovers.

Also beware of ambiguous wording. Just because an oil says it’s a ‘product of Spain’, for example, doesn’t mean the olives were grown or harvested there. This can simply mean it’s been imported from elsewhere and bottled there.

Perfect portions 

Taste – While some olive oils have very subtle differences, others can vary wildly in taste. Peppery, fruity, buttery, floral and nutty are some of the key flavours you’ll find in the best olive oils. Plus, the company claims that the oil is certified by USDA organic and GMO-free, so you can be sure you’re getting the best quality product possible. Is La Espanola Olive Oil Pure? Extra-virgin (EVOO) is the highest grade of olive oil you can buy. It’s extracted using the cold-pressing method, which ensures the olives are not heated to above 27°C. This preserves the flavour and antioxidant properties of the olives, and usually means the oil has a more aromatic flavour. The answer to this question depends on a couple of factors: the type of oil you want and how often you plan on using your olive oil. The price is great, and the quality is excellent as well. While some oils have a bad aftertaste, this one doesn’t, and I would recommend it to anyone.
