Bergamot, a relative of the bitter orange, is best known for imparting Earl Grey tea with its signature bittersweet scent. Here, Agrumato® uses whole bergamot oranges to achieve a citrusy, floral and pleasantly bitter olive oil thanks to their unique milling process. Rather than infusing the olive oil, as is common practice for other flavored oils, Agrumato® crushes whole bergamot oranges with the olives in their state-of-the-art mill, extracting all the fragrant essential oils from the fruit. Incorporating the citrus into the olive oil-making process from start to finish allows Agrumato® to create a bright and crisp olive oil that adds a one-of-a-kind dimension to both sweet and savory recipes.
