ABOUT THIS OIL
Complex and sophisticated with a long finish, ‘Agatherí Groves’ comes from fields 5-600 metres above sea level. The terrain is limestone and marble, and the climate is often severe in winter. These conditions encourage the trees to produce top-quality olives that make an exceptionally light on the palate oil, subtle in taste, with long-lasting afternotes.
This is an oil to complement delicate flavours, such as fine salads, steamed young vegetables, white fish, mayonnaise….
For a fabulous dressing, shake the oil with lemon juice and fresh-tasting herbs such as oregano and thyme.

HOW TO USE THIS OIL
With its very light consistency, ‘Agatherí Groves’ is perfect for the more delicate ingredients: as well as using it on baby leaf salads, try drizzling on lightly steamed young vegetables, or white fish. It goes brilliantly with asparagus hot or cold, makes excellent mayonnaise. Use it as one would with the finer herbs to flavour and enhance the dish.

SALAD DRESSING
To work with ‘Agatherí’s lighter textures, lemon juice is more sympathetic than balsamic. Or the light citrus tang of the excellent Japanese YUZU juice. If adding herbs, choose the more delicate.
-
A light and smooth oil with a gentle flavour. All the different elements blend well. It's not too grassy, not too bitter and not too spicy. A perfect blend of flavours to dress a simple salad. The fresh apple finish is divine. There is a delight in finding an olive oil which sings gently but still has all the qualities you look for.
