How to taste it best

Not everyone knows this, but extra virgin olive oil must also be tasted to fully appreciate its quality.

Our advice is to pour Tenuta Antonini’s 100% Abruzzo Extra Virgin Olive Oil into a plastic coffee cup, cover it with the palm of your hand and let it swirl slowly for a few seconds: in this way the oil will heat up slightly. and you will be able to fully enjoy its intense and persistent perfume, which will immediately confirm the value of a made in Italy and handcrafted product.

Toasted bread with oil is part of the Italian and Abruzzo culture in particular, but it is also perfect for embellishing, strictly raw, grilled or roasted meats and vegetable or legume soups.

The optimal temperature for storing Extra Virgin Olive Oil is between 12° and 18°; it must also be kept away from heat sources and away from constant light.
