Very strong smell, at first it had a strong fruity smell to it but then I mostly noticed lime with a very subtle hint of banana. The taste is much more subtle than the smell
For the price, this is such an excellent peace. The smell was very ripe, with some strong notes of ripe banana fixed with some kind of citrus. The taste reminds me of Mana2ish from Lebanon, it’s strong and spicy, with some great tones of flavors.
Personally I’m a big fan of olive oils that lean more towards having a grassy/earthy flavour and this really doesn’t disappoint. I mostly got an artichoke flavour with a hint of nuts
Having tried the Hojiblanca, this one being a blend between that and Picuda, there definitely is a difference in taste and aroma. I found it to smell sweeter than it tasted but I did like it.
I wasn’t the biggest fan but could do well for cooking purposes. I found it quite thick and it had a long lasting after taste which didn’t suite my palette.
Always nice coming across a non-filtered on a store shelf. Notes of sour apple and peaty (earthy) Taste was robust but so peppery that it didn’t come across well-balanced to me. The apple and earthy notes were prominent to me so could be okay to cook certain dishes with.
