There are generally 3 types of extra virgin olive oils:
Light Flavour Extra Virgin Olive Oil
As the name implies, light flavour extra virgin olive oil is the mildest of them all. It exudes a delicate, subtly sweet aroma with floral, fruity notes. Ideal to accentuate your ingredients’ natural flavours, especially fish and seafood. Light flavour extra virgin olive oil is also a wholesome butter replacement for your baking by using ¾ of the directed amount.
Classic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Classic extra virgin olive oil brings fruity and fresh balanced notes, with rich yet subtle aromatic notes and a crisp, creamy aftertaste. An all-purpose wonder that’s great for cooking noodles, veggies, meats and seafood dishes, giving them a fresh yummy punch. Also tasty as a salad dressing.
Robust Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Robust extra virgin olive oil is the boldest in the range. With subtle herbaceous, peppery and mildly bitter notes, as well as fresh hints of citrusy, grassy and nutty flavours. Best used in marinades, stews, slow-cooked, braised meats, sauce-heavy dishes, stir-fries and deep fries; or as a drizzle over salads, breads and noodle dishes to enhance aroma.
