Description
The info from Fowey Valley:
To complement our cider vinegar we import and bottle this extra virgin olive oil from southwest Sicily. Our Nocellara del Belice olives are grown in the Belice Valley near the town of Castelvetrano. This variety is characterised by its bright green colour and its large, plump size; each olive weighs from 6 to 8 grams.
The oil has aromas of citrus fruits and pepper. It is lightly spicy, extraordinarily fruity, silky and light with notes of artichokes, green apple, tomatoes and delicate young green almond. The finish is wonderfully fresh.
We know about this fantastic oil through our friends the Bua family who supply our champagne corks and who also grow some of these olives.
