Casina Rossa Sorrento Lemon Olive Oil

Casina Rossa Sorrento Lemon Olive Oil

500 ml bottle - Abruzzo, Italy

Lemon Olive Oil from Abruzzo, Italy

The Californians use Meyer lemons and the Umbrians use Sorrento lemons. Each has its own personality and adds something special to these oils.

We are loving the artisan Sorrento lemon infused olive oil because it's perfect for fish or oven blasted vegetables, like asparagus.

It fills the nose with a wonderful lemon scent, without any bitter notes. To the eye it has a nice yellow green color and darkens with depth.

To the mouth it is pure joy. A sip is lemony. By the mouthful, it takes a moment for the lemon to evolve into a gentle wash that passes through. As the oil swishes the lemon moves to the outside in the cheeks and to the back of the throat. It has a bit of roll around action and when the oil has dissipated, the upper part of your cheeks seems to keep the lemon flavor!

The finish has a little bit of bitter on the top outer edge of the tongue and a hint of heat in the lower back of the throat - enough to create a little cough.

This oil is so good you can drizzle it on pasta and that’s all you need! Summer is better with artisan Sorrento lemon infused olive oil from Italy.
