Storage
- Keep in a cool, dark place, away from the hob and sunny windowsills.
- Close the cap firmly after each use to keep air out.
- There is no need to refrigerate; cold can make good olive oil cloudy, though this clears at room temperature.
- It is always bottled from the latest harvest, so enjoy it while it is fresh rather than saving it.
Serving
- Use it raw to make the most of its flavour: drizzle over salads, grilled fish and soups.
- Pour a little into a dish with good bread and a pinch of sea salt.
- Finish burrata, tomatoes or grilled vegetables with a generous swirl.
- Keep a cheaper oil for frying and save this one for the table.
