Badia A Coltibuono is the single most consistent producer of authentic extra virgin olive oil in Italy, and is widely considered by chefs, food critics, consumers, and media as the super-premium extra virgin olive oil, by which all others are judged. This classic Tuscan extra virgin olive oil has been produced since 1058!
This extra virgin olive oil is golden yellow, with hearty green nuances. The oil has a balanced fruity flavor, with a hint of toasted nuts, and an intense aroma of fresh olives.
The distinct peppery sensation produced at the back of your throat on the oil's finish, is an attirbute of oil whose olive harvest was young and fresh.
This oil is perfect for dressing salads, vegetables, pasta, potatoes, soup, and bread. The acidity level, harvest, and release dates are on the label to guarantee freshness.
