What's the buzz...?
Why we don't sell flavored olive oils
We chose not to carry flavored olive oils, and in particular truffle flavored olive oils despite the many inquiries of our friends and customers and flavored oils increasing popularity in America.
We only sell the best Italian extra virgin olive oils , we painstankingly research our extra virgin olive oil producers, get to meet them in person and make sure every step of their production can be accounted for. Regional characteristics, climate, olive varieties and methods of production impart subtle differences to each of the oils we choose and we are extremely picky in our selection , very proud of our choices.
We don’t carry flavored olive oils, and in particular truffle olive oils because we always felt that we shouldn’t compromise the excellent quality of our oils with eccentric distractions.
We have done enough research about truffle olive oils to assure you that there’s nothing natural about them.
Truffle olive oil is produced by adding a chemical essence which smells and taste like truffle, usually to cover the taste of a mediocre olive oil.
For a merchant, it is hard to resist the temptation of selling a product with such high profit margins and market demand. Be aware what else that merchant might try and sell you, beside the truffle olive oil...
Regarding other flavored oils, we still haven’t found one that meets our strict taste standards, however, If you wish to follow the trend and are still inclined to experiment with flavored oils, how hard can it be to add a sprig of rosemary to your good bottle of olive oil?
