Tasting notes
Frescobaldi Laudemio extra virgin olive oil—a blend of three Italian olive varietals: Frantoio, Moraiolo and Leccino—is the epitome of a Tuscan olive oil. It's robust with bold aromas of green olives, freshly mown grass, artichoke and wild arugula. The oil is well-balanced with a pleasing bitterness, round fruitiness and a sparkling finish of spiciness. A robust intensity olive oil.
How to use
Rolando Beramendi—author of AUTENTICO: Cooking Italian, the Authentic Way—suggests using this extra virgin olive oil as "Tuscan ketchup" and pouring it over everything. Add a generous finishing pour to a simple bowl of cannellini beans, sautéed greens or over a hot-off-the-grill steak—the way the Tuscans do.
About the producer
One of our favorite Tuscan olive oil producers is actually a consortium of a few estates that strive to produce the finest olive oil in Florence. They are harder on themselves than any other producer, holding their product to higher standards than any others. These high standards make Frescobaldi Laudemio oil one of the more iconic Tuscan exports.

This oil nicely enhances the flavor of a baked potato, but the olive oil flavor and strength (pepperiness) tend to get lost in the potato. I, still, however have not been able to find a better olive oil. I also like the no-drip spout.
This stuff is so good. Thank you.
