Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Masseria Santa Venia, Puglia, 75 Liters ( 25 oz.), $35.99
Made primarily from Celline di Nardo olives, an ancient cultivar native to the Terra d’Otranto on Puglia’s Adriatic coastline, this yellow-gold oil is high in polyphenols which make it especially fragrant. It is buttery and fruity with a strong peppery finish and an unusual nuttiness that is reminiscent of artichokes. Its intense flavor makes it ideal for drizzling over seafood like octopus and calamari as well as raw vegetables and bruschetta.
