I bought this evoo from the producer in a farmer’s market in Saint Tropez, France. The merchant/producer confirmed the variety is Aglandau. A creamy tasting evoo. The smell has a strong note of ripe banana—And the taste brought in more complexity: Reminiscent of ripe bananas, flowers and an undertone of nuts. (I enjoyed the taste more than the smell) It was very spicy. The evoo overall wasn’t as balanced as some but it has some complexity and would be functional to pair or cook with.
