Review of Masserie di Sant'Eramo Flavorful Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Italy)

I spent an hour one day tasting a variety of expensive olive oils at the St. Lawrence Market in Toronto and came home with something very pricy that tasted like car grease.The following day in exasperation I just hauled something off the shelf at our local supermarket and it turned out to be fantastic.Masserie di Sant'Eramo (the "flavourful" kind, not the "delicate" version) always gets compliments and it's very difficult to find; no other supermarket in Toronto or where we live now on the west coast has it, at least to my knowledge.I was delighted to find that it's available through Amazon since I had given up hope of finding it anywhere other than at Loblaws in Toronto.Strongly recommended!

Product Description

Masserie di Sant'Eramo Flavorful Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced from selected "Coratina" and "Ogliarola Barese" olives from the best groves in the Murge area of Apulia.

First cold pressing means that the olives are pressed only once within hours of being picked and are not heated to increase yields. This method ensures that the bouquet and flavor of the olives are kept intact.

"Coratinas"give Masserie di Sant'Eramo Flavorful Extra Virgin Olive Oil body and the fruity aroma of fresh olives; "Ogliarolas" round off its taste. This "Flavorful" oil is bottled in dark green glass to protect it from light and safeguard its excellent nutritional properties.

Masserie di Sant'Eramo Flavorful Extra Virgin Olive Oil has an acidity level of less than .5%. Each bottle contains 17 fluid ounces and is imported from Italy.
