Love the taste of this olive oil, great quality, rich color, and just perfectly on the robust end, nice for salads and as a finishing oil.

I bought this based on reviews about the outstanding taste. I have been looking for a dupe of a super expensive Italian evoo I had bought a few years ago at a high priced specialty kitchenware retailer. That oil is the standard by which all others are measured, but I just can’t justify the price. I know there’s a value version out there- I just can’t find it!This is oil is fine. It’s 1000x better than anything you’ll find on the grocery shelf, and most of what’s on Amazon (I’ve tried a LOT) that’s for sure. It has a delicate flavor of olive with a very light hint of pepper on the finish. It’s definitely not rancid or bitter, so I’m guessing the people who wrote those reviews got spoiled product. For the price (I got it on sale) you can’t beat it for 3 liters. Still, I had high hopes after all of the rave reviews, but the flavor is just not the bold, rich, peppery one I am looking for. For comparison, my favorite wines are big, bold, dry Cabernets so if you’re a moscato drinker, maybe this has bold flavor to you lol. The search continues…

I am picky about olive oils and had read some negative reviews about the state of the containers, but I'm on my 4th order of this oil and, aside from a few dents, I've had nothing but great experiences with this oil. It is really lovely in how fresh and fruity it tastes. I use it for finishes as well as for cooking, putting it in a smaller bottle I use on an every day basis. This is one of the better oils I have purchased. Highly recommend it. With some lemon juice and salt, and a touch of Greek oregano, it's the perfect dressing for a salad.

I love a good EVOO, and I especially love one that has a good bite.I was fortunate for a long time to have access to a local olive oil importer and packager. They sadly went out of business due to supply chain issues during COVID. Their source was a family-owned orchard in Greece. I loved that oil for its strong bitter kick, of which many others fall short.When I set out to find a new source I learned of the Koroneiki variety. This is the same stuff, with the same bold flavor.As with another commenter, the oil I received was unfortunately kicking around the supply chain for an extra year, so not as fresh as it could be. Oh well.*Update*With respect to the expiration date, I've since noticed an olive oil container (not this one) that had both "best by" and "packaged on" dates, which were less than a year apart.This is to say, just because this EVOO has an expiration date in the next several months doesn't mean it's already a year old. There's no way to know without missing context.To any manufacturers paying attention: please put production dates on your products. It's much more useful than an expiration date.
