Les Terroirs De Marrakech Olive Oil

500 ml - Morocco (2023 Harvest)

Les Terroirs De Marrakech
Moroccan Olive Oil

With three ticks of the second hand and the burn sets in and three coughs and you know you have an wonderful olive oil.

With a full feel, the tip of the tongue gets this great olive taste, almost as if you are eating the olive from which it came. I love the feel of this Moroccan olive oil. Delightfully full of flavor, yet so clean the oil evaporates leaving a wonderful memory.

Les Terroirs de Marrakech Olive Oil is pressed from 100% Picholine du Languedoc olives grown in century old groves originally planted by Baron Rothschild.

The Aqallal family has been producing Moroccan olive oil in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains since 1887, winning more awards and press mentions than any other producer in the region along the way, including Travel + Leisure, Saveur, London’s Great Taste Gold, Los Angeles Olive Oil Competition Gold Medal. All the olive work is done on the estate, from cultivation and harvest to bottling and packaging. Les Terroirs de Marrakech olive oil has a very low acidity level of between 0.1 and 0.2 percent.

This delicately complex aroma takes in almonds, culinary herbs with a touch of basil, lemons and sweet bananas. There is also a hint of woody hedgerows and wet grass.

Very sweet and delicate style of oil with a good burst of pepper.

An attractive and gently complex oil with a really sweet finish. Use it for general cooking, but particularly for desserts and baking.
