Definitely one of the better olive oils I've tried. Personally I tasted a little bit of banana at first but then a sudden and strong hit of almonds which lasted quite a while and was very buttery overall. Not too spicy but noticeable which doesn't last all too long. I would highly recommend

I bought this evoo in a boutique in Istanbul in the Üsküdar district. We were told the “Taş Baskı” label means that it was created using a tradition stone press method. (Which is interesting) The smell is a strong ripe banana, but there is a vinegar or balsamic-type scent also coming through. The taste, on the other hand, is clean, soft, texture is a bit creamy, and the prominent note is still ripe/yellow banana. (No balsamic/vinegar taste at all) Overall, the taste is soft, on the fruity side (versus vegetal) and pleasant.

This evoo has a prominent flavour on smell and taste of green banana. It’s a bit on the oily side in texture which will make it not the most suitable for sipping. Its body is medium and its tasting intensity is moderate.

This EVOO packs a lot of flavour. I was happy to find it in a grocery store in Malta. It’s notably high in spiciness, the sensation of which lasts for sometime. The body is thick. The flavour level is high. And the flavours are strong in wood and nuts.

On smell a beautiful aroma of cut grass and a blend of fruits including apple. On taste: the same. The body is medium and the tasting intensity is high. It’s very spicy. This is a world-class evoo.

It smells floral, light in smell and taste was so drinkable actually. You can feel the spice at the end of your journey

While you feel like you're smelling plants, tomato scents may hit your nose. A wonderful olive oil that gives you mixed feelings

It has a soothing texture. It makes you think that it will give you calmness when you drink it.

When I first smelled it, I felt like I was in a tomato field. It has a soft taste.

Its smell was not that good but taste was good actually

It tastes great. It feels like smelling a plant.

I really like it. It has a good and light smell and its taste was so light too

It does not have a strong smell but its taste was so oily

It has a wonderful aroma that burns the throat while drinking, I feel the scents of lemon and tomato.

It smells like tomato and tastes like banana ends with a spicy note

A premium and complex evoo. Notes of green banana, cut grass and tomato on smell. The texture is creamy with notes of olives, green banana and a bit floral. The body is above medium and its tasting intensity is high. It leans on the vegetal side (versus fruity) and has attributes of both. This was one of the first evoos I tasted when I was introduced to the world of high-quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil 3 years ago. It’s good to have gotten back to this olive oil again, albeit a newer harvest.

A creamy-tasting evoo. Light notes of wood, nuts, and olive leaves. The body is a bit above medium and the tasting intensity is light.

I bought this evoo from a bizzar in Istanbul. As I went to open it part of the lid (plastic) chipped off. (Could have been handled strongly during shipping to the merchant) The look of the oil was very hazy which I always find interesting (and fun) when I come across evoos like this. There was something a bit unusual for an evoo in the smell–There was a light smell of balsamic oil. And on taste the same–. I don’t know this for certain but I wonder if the production facility for this evoo makes other food products (like Balsamic oil, other food oils, etc.) on the same production line. Body is heavy and tasting intensity is close to high.

I found this EVOO in an outdoor fruit display at a corner store in Valletta, Malta. Perhaps this EVOO comes from the family of the store, but that is currently unknown. I was happy to find this EVOO. It’s very high in walnut flavour, low but present in sp

I bought this Turkish Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a bizzar in Istanbul. (District of Eminönü) To date I’ve never seen an EVOO so clear in look and taste. A way to describe its look is like if you were looking at white wine in a glass. There is almost no smell but faint notes of citrus, banana & nuts. The taste is very buttery with a light touch of sweetness and nuts. There is no spice. The evoo was so pleasant that I easily drank the first glass (small glass) without thinking much about it. In summary, an exceptionally light-looking and -smelling evoo with a pleasant taste.

I bought this evoo in a natural foods boutique in Beyoğlu, Türkiye. (18/12/24) It came in a wine-styled bottle–Elongated cylindrical bottle with a synthetic cork. The wrapping at the top didn’t come off naturally so I used a knife. But this can happen with this type of bottling. The evoo had a strong smell of orange. The taste too is heavy in citrus and light in ripe banana. The evoo is spicy but not high in spice. The body and tasting intensity are both a bit below moderate.

This is a thick, hazy EVOO that is on the woody & nutty side in taste with a good level of spice that lasts at the top of the back of the throat for some time. I consider this a very high-quality EVOO and recommend it to others.

This is a hot evoo. (In spice that is) Smell is high in green banana. On first taste there is a buttery rush of veggies followed immediately with a heavy and long amount of spice. I’m very happy I found this evoo and for anyone wanting to experience an extremely spicy and tasty evoo I recommend.

A nice, sweet evoo with moderate spice. On smell and taste: Cut grass, green bananas and nuts. Spiciness is moderate, body is a bit below moderate and tasting intensity is medium.

A real distinct taste of ripe banana with this evoo. Olive tree leaves and nuts are also present. The body is light and the tasting intensity is below moderate. There is little to no spice. Overall a light evoo that is pleasant and well-balanced.

The smell is sweet and very unique, slightly citrus, lots of tomato 🍅. Thick body for a Spanish Evoo. Tastes complex, smooth and veggie.

Light & fresh Evoo.

It's a light, creamy Evoo great for any occasion. Very distinct taste and smell. definitely way fruity and floral and typical EVOOs.

On first smell green banana, cut grass and almond. Something about the smell indicated too to me that the texture would be creamy. This evoo didn’t let me down–On first sip a creamy texture flushed my mouth. On taste, notes of veggie, chocolate, green banana, and almonds. Body is medium and flavour intensity is moderate.

On smell this EVOO has a really ripe banana smell. On taste a blast of ripe banana as the prominent note. I’m very happy to have found it. The spiciness level is low to moderate. Its body is a bit above medium. It’s flavour intensity is moderate. Its texture is creamy. A good EVOO for sipping.

The strongest Tunisian EVOO I’ve tried to date. High in spice, woody, nutty and unripe banana. Body is thick and flavour intensity is high.

This is a light and buttery EVOO. It’s very easy to drink—A good starter EVOO for someone new to EVOOs. This is also a good EVOO for first-of-the-day-sipping. (I’m drinking it most days while in Tunisia after waking up) Its flavour intensity is low, its body is light and it has a low but present amount of spice.

A smooth, spicy, buttery & well-balanced olive oil. I bought this EVOO from a boutique in La Marsa, Tunisia, directly from one of the store keepers, whose orchard the olives come from. This EVOO is medium in body with plenty of banana between ripe and green.

A light-flavoured EVOO. The dominant flavour is ripe banana with a little bit of nuts. Spiciness is present but interestingly delayed but lasting for several minutes. The body is light.

This EVOO brings a high green banana flavour immediately with notes of citrus in the background. The spiciness level is low to none. The body is light. And the overall flavour level is moderate. This is not a complex EVOO but it’s pleasant and easy to sip in the mornings. Would likely add some flavour to a salad.

Definitely special, from the packaging to the story. A unique presentation. The flavour is very spicy and complex.

this is amazing!

the smell is great but it’s very spicy!

Very Spicy and Complex.

Smooth Olive. Sweet and heavy tasting. Smells like banaba.

that’s creamy and nice!

Smells and tastes complex and sophisticated.

It's quite a strong Evoo. Very spicy and grassy.

it’s really intensive and strong.

Definitely strong and heavy. The spiciness lasts slightly longer than other ones I have tried.

it was really nice but i didn’t love it:)

It's a light olive oil. Smells good.
