La Laguna de Fuente de Piedra | Extra Virgin Olive Oil | 2019/20 | 84.5 fl oz | Single Estate Production | Small Batch | Unblended | Early Harvest | 100% Viduena Olive | Spanish

Let me start off by saying that my family loves olive oil!!! I always keep olive oil on hand because of its nutritional benefits, but I also like to have it on hand because I love how it enhances the taste of our food. I have been open to trying different brands throughout the years, and what I have noticed is the difference between a good/bad olive oil. This olive oil is FANTASTIC! It is on the pricier side, but I am a firm believer in "you get what you pay for." I also find that the cheaper olive oil brands are really heavy and oily, and they smell kind of funky!! La Laguna de Fuente de Piedra has a delicious pungent flavor which means it is full of the antioxidants we need. It also has that premium bitter taste I have come to know and love from a good olive oil. After it arrived, I decided to make an Italian meal so I could give it a whirl! Everything that we added this oil to tasted delish! I love making homemade dipping sauces and salad dressings because my family loves bread and salad, and many times when I blend the oils with other ingredients, it causes the oil to lose its taste. Not only was this oil still delicious after blending, it also tasted great straight out of the can. A couple days later I made a homemade avocado salad dressing. My goodness, it tasted 10 times better than it usually does when I use other brands of olive oil. We ate the entire jar of avocado dressing in one night where we usually have some left over for another night.I am also into natural health and beauty products, and olive oil is one of the more familiar oils I use as a carrier oil. I have not tried this oil for that purpose yet because I want to eat all of it instead, but I am going to save a small bit of it as a carrier oil just to see how well it works in my whips and lotions.I can't express how ecstatic I am to find this brand olive oil! It is a little expensive, so I may not be able to buy it on a regular basis, but I will most certainly be ordering this oil again and using it as sparingly as I can to savor the flavor!!! Absolutely divine!

This is a great olive oil. The first time I poured some out of the can I could smell the exceptional quality of the oil. I've been buying what I thought was quality but after tasting this small batch oil I now know better. Expensive for sure, but I've paid more for a bottle of wine that didn't make it to the next day. I'm never going back to the cheap and probably not even olive oil supermarket offerings. If the family in Spain is reading these reviews, offer an English language selection on your webpage, you have other products I'd like to try but I don't read Spanish.

This is wonderfully fresh olive oil! Starts off with a peppery kick which mellows but the fresh, rich fruitiness lingers leaving a pleasant lasting flavor, beautifully coating your palate. Being on the Ketogenic diet for seizure control I have to have nearly 200 grams of healthy fats a day which can be challenging so whenever my numbers are low I go to olive oil. Most of the time I use it on my salads and drizzle over my meals including grilled vegetables and fish. I have tried many brands and I am very happy to have discovered this one!

I hesitated before I purchased this as it's quite pricey, but it's absolutely worth it. This oil is clearly produced with love and care by folks devoted to their craft. They're wonderful about answering questions, incredibly responsive, and great in helping you understand the differences between this and other oils. I'm on a limited budget but will absolutely purchase this again, and use to finish things like pastas, salads, etc. Can't recommend it highly enough.

One can tell immediately--from the smell and the taste--the difference between mass market oils and quality oils: this is very high quality. Also, it is of the most recent harvest--and not all oils are. The can keeps it fresh (protected from light), and it pours in a controlled manner. Because the can is wider than most bottles, it looks smaller than ordinary 500 ml bottles, but it is not.

I ordered a can of Viduena via Amazon and expected the flavor to be excellent - but I was surprised by the viscosity. It was - I am lacking the vocabulary - thick or it adhered to the tongue. I have never cooked with it - just smeared it on bread or made salad dressing. A hint - leave some in the frig and it will harden. Then apply it to bread with a silicon barbecue brush. It is similar to buttering bread. Love it.

Almost seems like a southern italian premium oil. Pricey, but worth it.

I discovered this extra virgin olive oil recently and despite not being cheap I bought it. I have to say compared to the other extra virgin olive oil I had bought in the past this one has been the best. I am very happy with it and can only recommend it to anyone who likes olive oil with a smooth taste (not bitter in any way). Next time I will buy the bigger container :-)
