Great Taste Award Winner 2019
Oro Bailen Hojiblanca extra virgin olive oil won a Great Taste Star from the
Guild of Fine Foods in 2020. Commenting on Oro Bailen Hojiblanca, the Great
Taste judges ...” What an exquisite colour of golden green, perfectly clear. The
aroma of freshly cut grass also has elements of cold buttered artichokes and
green bananas. The mouthfeel and texture is silky smooth with a fresh young
olive fruitiness, a little bitterness midpalate, and a warm and reassuring
pepperiness on the finish….Vibrant in colour with a grassy, citrus nose.
Peppery, meadowy and fruity in taste.”
