Italian Leccino Extra Virgin Olive Oil

This extra virgin olive oil has a nice green olive nose. The flavor is full with a bit of pepper mid stride, mellow compared to some, it fits nicely for dishes (or palettes) that prefer a less forward oil. The Leccino olive produces a smooth, mild olive oil that is green in color with a golden yellow hue, a fruity aroma, and a delicate almond flavor.  Historically, Leccino is used as a pollinator and to blend with Moraiolo and Frantoio olives. But these leccino olives make a wonderful statement all on their own.
