Olive Oil Suggestions for Hostess Gifts
Masserie Di Sant’Eramo Extra Virgin Olive Oil is delicate with a light fruity bouquet. Use it with delicate dishes like fish, green salads, grilled vegetables, mayonnaise, pastry and similar light preparations.
Frantoia Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Sicily can do it all, from drizzling on fine steaks to making salads. This phenomenal oil has a delicate, fruity flavor that is reminiscent of fresh olives that end with a pleasant aftertaste of sweet almonds.
Galantino DOP Terra di Bari – Castelli Del Monte has intense fruity aromas, rich spiciness and a bitterness that is much appreciated by the olive oil connoisseur. Though it is fabulous with almost any recipe, this product is strong, and matches best with strongly flavored dishes that command attention.
Special Edition
L’Estornell Christopher Columbus Edition olive oil (pictured above, top) is made from the fruit of Spanish olive trees that are over 500 years old – olive trees that were around and bearing fruit when Christopher Columbus set sail for the America’s in 1492. It is housed in a limited-edition bottle that is numbered and represents the decanters used throughout Spain during Christopher Columbus’ lifetime. Housed in a wooden box, this will make a beautiful gift for the history lover and connoisseur of fine foods.
