BABYLONSTOREN FRANTOIO EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL 500ML

Considered one of Italy?s most noble olive varietals and deeply connected to the Tuscan landscape, our local Frantoio crop has yielded this very special single varietal extra virgin olive oil. Made distinctive by its intense green hue with a golden sheen, the unique fragrance is characterised by dried herbs, floral tones, almonds, green apples and freshly-cut grass. Delightfully piquant, the flavour of our Frantoio Extra Virgin Olive Oil is distinguished by a robust but pleasant peppery, bitter taste. Produced by our friends at Babylonstoren, South Africa, their seasonal single varietal oil is made with olives grown in the sun and soil on the slopes of the Simonsberg mountain. From traditional hand-harvesting to cold-pressing, the process combines state-of-the-art methods with an artisanal approach to create this deliciously award-winning olive oil. The best extra virgin olive oils are best served cold to really appreciate the freshness and flavour. Shake it up in a dressing, swirl into dips, and drizzle over everything, from grilled chicken to couscous and fluffy buffalo mozzarella. Enjoy this superlative oil for dipping with rustic bread, over seasonal salads, pasta dishes, Turkish and Moroccan cuisine, with fish and seafood or elevate a simple platter of tomatoes into something magnificent.
