Corfu Town olive oil tasting 👌
After visiting Corfu Town this year we went for the olive oil tasting at The Olive house ( highly recommended) which might I say was phenomenal fun with Meena!
We decided to purchase the white bottled olive oil as a birthday gift when back home.
After a little tweak with my order, which was speedily rectified might I add , was upmost delighted with the packaging and speed of delivery.
I’m also considering the subscription as I too find it fabulous!

It is delicious and far superior to other olive oils
It is delicious and far superior to other olive oils. It has a peppery taste at the back of the throat which indicates how good and pure it is. No regrets purchasing it.

Absolutely Superb!
The most delicious, deep, rich and smooth olive oil with an exciting peppery kick-back to finish. We followed the exciting and ritualistic tasting suggestion before drenching our ciabatta in it (too tasty to just dip!). The packaging surrounding the oil added to the luxurious feel. The ordering and delivery process was straightforward, and easy to track, with the oil arriving a few days later. A completely amazing olive oil.
