Trilloliva, a truly special olive oil

You already know that every now and then I bring you news that truly excites me. Today I have a new one: we have discovered Trilloliva, an olive oil that is absolutely incredible, a real rough diamond... And we have it exclusively for online sale in Spain!

Oh, I think I seldom drop something so suddenly... But I had to say it!

Let's get to the important part: Trilloliva oil. Trilloliva is a family company that cultivates centuries-old olive groves, and then, based on a traditional cultivation system, through a cooperative society they transform the olives into olive juice, into extra virgin olive oil.

They produce two types of oil. I'll tell you first about the one that hooked me completely from the first time I tried it, the one they call Gourmet green EVOO. This is a very particular extra virgin olive oil, which obtains its character by using an olive that is still green, harvested during only 15 days in October, resulting in an oil with extraordinary density but very delicate on the palate

What impacted me most about Trilloliva's green oil is the change of flavor I experienced in it within seconds: just tasting it seemed mild, but in no time a delicious flavor began to develop, and it ended with a slight bitterness of the green olive that stayed in my mouth for a good while, but without heat.

As I say, Trilloliva gourmet is a truly complete oil, full of nuances in its taste, and also in its aroma (you can find aromatic herbs -like fennel-, green notes, fruits or nuts -like almond). Additionally, it comes from olives of the Picual variety, which gives it the characteristic of being one of the most stable oils on the market, and it is also a genuine natural olive juice, since it is cold-pressed.

To leave you with a curiosity I'll tell you that the flavor of that oil left me so impressed that I called my father to come and try it. He is a great oil taster (he loves olive oil!), so the little treasure I had just discovered could not remain only mine. I gave it to him to try, and after a few seconds he was telling me "Claudia, oh, what an oil, where is it from I want a bottle, You're adding it to the shop now!"

And that's how we've done it! From today, you can find Trilloliva gourmet green oil in our Pantry section. The nicest thing about the case is, moreover, that the family that runs Trilloliva knew Claudia&Julia, and after discussing the excitement of incorporating and promoting their oil, they have granted us the exclusive for its online sale (A thousand thanks, Ana!).

Gourmet EVOO and 5L EVOO can

You might also find it curious to know that I recently discovered that this oil has won major awards around the world: gold medal at the Los Angeles EVOO International Competition (USA), double gold in Athena, silver medal in France, finalists in Jaén, gold in Japan and also in Israel... At least this time my palate wasn't wrong, for sure!

Aside from the Verde Gourmet variety, which you will thoroughly enjoy if you use it on green salads, pasta, fish, on bread... (on recipes where the dressing takes center stage!), we have also added the extra virgin olive oil (the Trilloliva EVOO). This is also an oil from the Picual variety, with lots of character and a classic flavor of an extra virgin olive oil of extremely high quality (you won't regret trying it either!). In this case, it is made from the olive starting from the second half of November.
