Initially when poured into the glass this evoo presented a prominent peaty (earthy) aroma. As the evoo oxidated for about 20 seconds the peaty aroma got mostly replaced with fruits on the sour side. (Think like Apples and Blackberries) It’s quite spicy and complex. It’s moderately balanced. An evoo I would recommend to others looking for an economical evoo with character. (A note that after having this bottle for a few days I started having issues with its cap/lid–Plastic inner filter fell off once when opening the lid; the cap is often not seamless to twist open)
