|
Dominant aromas are artichoke, pear, then, dry almond. Oil made from the Aglandau olive is naturally full of total polyphenols which contribute to a certain ardence (spiciness), and to good preservation of the product.

|
In Provence’s Baux Valley, it is the natural complement to the Aglandau. Delicacy and mellowness characterize the Salonenque, developping the aromas of almonds, fresh apple, and a final buttery note. Also, the Salonenque is an excellent boutique olive (recipe for cracked olives, « olives cassées »)

The very light natural bitterness of the Grossane makes this olive a good choice for a boutique olive oil. But it contributes, as well, to the production of a very mild but at the same time aromatic oil, in which one can detect grapefruit, tomato, strawberry, and then green almond. |
|
|
The firmness of the meat is a characteristic which makes this one ideal for table olives. Besides, extraction of the oil, which is dominated by a touch of bitterness, is not easy. Among its aromas, one notes bananas, but also plum and vanilla, so it does make an important contribution to blended oils. |

|
Transplanted from central Italy and Tuscany, the Leccino is a joy for the olive producer ; its production is steady, and its fruit contributes to an oil with varied qualities, developping secondary aromas of grains and blackberry. Its natural level of oleic acid conributes to the excellence of its nutritional content.. |
|
|
The Coratina complements the Leccino wonderfully. Very aromatic, with predominant fruity and peppery characteristics, Coratina oil is renowned for its wealth of polyphenols (anitoxidents) which contribute to preventative health, and a long preservation of the product. |
|
|
Greek in origin, it is a well-known boutique olive. Although its yield in oil is average, its natural herbaceous aromas make it an outstanding product. |
|
|
Present on numerous Hellenic islands, one of which is Crete, it has a mixed purpose–table olive and oil–making it a highly valued fruit. It is known for its excellent yield in oil and its perfect long-term preservation. |
