The Olivique Olive Oil-Love At First Bite
Eating good food is a joyful experience for me. It’s like basking in a symphony of flavors. So, I’m always thrilled when I encounter a new product that performs so well it makes my palette sing. Such is the case with The Olivique, a new brand of Spanish Mediterranean Extra Virgin Olive Oil. For me it was love at first bite. This flavorful oil is so delicious, I’ve been incorporating it into just about every dish I conjure up.
What makes it so special?
Flavor and simplicity. There are four distinct varieties from which to choose: Arbequina, Picual, Koroneiki and Cornicabra. All four are subtly textured and their unique flavors range from a woody herb blend to a peppery finish. (You can visit The Olivique web site for a full description of all four varieties.) Each one brings out the richness of a dish without overpowering it. That, my friends, is an impressive feat!
Currently, I’m smitten with the Arbequina, a delicate and fruity blend flavored with apples and almonds. Try it with my simple recipe, Sautéed Scallops over Spaghetti Squash. You can also drizzle it over freshly grilled fish: Amazing! Or be adventurous with any recipe of your choice.
Calling all foodies!
Anyone who is a lover of good food will love this product. These olive oils are delicious.
Health conscious? The oils are also beneficial for your health. High in oleic acid, they’ve been credited with improving heart and liver performance and overall health. So, tasty and healthy. Does it get any better than that?
Where does this delicious olive oil come from?
Just like its unique flavors, the location of its source is also unique. The Olivique is produced in the Old Monastery of El Bercial de San Rafael in Toledo, Spain. Local family farms provide the olives which are sourced from trees up to one hundred years old or more. Some of the older orchards are still harvested by hand.
The Olivique prides itself on the purity of its product and their label says it all. “Truth, Simplicity & Olive Oil”
I couldn’t agree more.
The good news is, you don’t have to travel to Spain to find The Olivique.
