This is distinctly sweet, fragrant and fruity oil in the Provencal style, different from the Italian extra virgin olive oil. As France's most respected oil specialist L'Olivier consistently produces a low acidity oil that is very versatile. Ideal when you really want a fruity but mild olive flavor. For greater shelf presence, we offer this oil in a beautiful tin barrel. Its especially good drizzled on cold dishes such as salads and raw vegetables.
