Arbequina from Chile

Sigona’s December 2011 olive oil of the month

This oil…

• features aromas of ripe olive, floral and a hint of dry grass. It’s creamy and buttery with a delayed, mild peppery sensation on the back end.

• is traditionally a mild cultivar, but this crop produced an outstanding oil that’s very tasty and very bold, with a polyphenol count of 435.

• would be perfect for a flavor-packed dish, such as an herbed, grilled bruschetta or an ingredient-heavy holiday salad, such Wild Arugula, Fennel & Local, Sweet Pomegranate Salad
