This variety gives life to an oil characterized by a medium/intense level of fruitiness, a medium level of bitterness and spiciness, with prevailing herbaceous sensations and light hints of artichoke, fresh almond, and tomato.
It goes beautifully with fish dishes, shellfish (excellent for scampi and prawns), raw fish, steamed fish, salads, and carpaccio, while its presence enhances vegetable soups, leafy cooked vegetables, grilled vegetables, grilled meats. It is an authentic expression of the local territory.

How to conserve
The rule applies to any type of cultivar: it must be stored in a dry place at a temperature not exceeding 18/20 degrees. Once the package has been opened (can or bag in box) it is advisable to transfer the oil into smaller containers so that it is as little as possible in contact with oxygen. It must be protected from light (do not use transparent bottles), from air and heat. The oil absorbs odors so it is better not to use oil cruets and always close the bottle or can. It is important to know that the deadline (18 months from bottling) is only indicative. After this date, the oil does not become harmful and therefore can be used without any risk to health. However, it loses the intensity and fragrance of aromas and flavors.
