Italian Olive Oil & 3 Factors Every Taster Should Have

By Katie Arden


To say that there is a level of importance associated with Italian olive oil tasting would be an understatement. Those who understand the product, in general, will understand that this type of product has certain intricacies and many of them aren't even related to taste at all. With this in mind, what are some of the most important talking points when concerning Italian olive oil tasters? To best understand this subject, here are 3 factors for every taster to consider.

A true Italian olive oil taster should not let the appearance of the product dictate what their final view of the oil should be. It should be noted that the appearance of the oil, in most cases, is not indicative of whether a product will taste good. For this reason alone, rarely is the oil ever given to tasters in clear containers; it's usually small, dark glasses that are utilized. Regardless, authorities along the lines of Unaprol will tell you that there are more critical components to take into consideration.

If you are unfamiliar with this type of product, you may be curious as to what exactly it is that poor taste is all about. There are many examples to take into account, such as a metallic twinge that mostly comes from the material it is packaged in. This is one of the reasons why you'll find high-quality bottles of oil made with glass. The oil itself may taste downright rancid, which is typically a result of the oil being left out in the heat for too long, so make sure you keep this in mind as well.

What about the types of aromas that these products seem to possess? It's important to keep in mind that the most professional of tasters will take it upon themselves to inhale the scent of the oil in order to determine what exactly the scents are. More often than not, there is a fruity aroma to pick up on but one of the best things about this oil is that there are other bits and pieces which come into play. Assessing the scent of the oil is another task for a professional taster to undertake.

If you are able to keep these ideas in mind, you may find yourself becoming a bit of an Italian olive oil taster yourself. There are reasons to get involved in this endeavor, ranging from the variety of said oils to the ability to enhance one's health as a result of them. You may come across an oil that has more of a kick to it or maybe you'll find a pleasant sweetness in another. As you can see, it's understandable why many people decide to become tasters.
