This is what a great, fresh, well-made Koroneiki oil should taste like. It is a well-balanced, robust oil with strong fruitiness, bitterness, and pungency.  The bitterness lingers while being complemented by the bold pungency and both ripe and green fruitiness. The fruitiness characteristics are incredibly complex, with floral aromas and tropical, ripe banana flavors that are dominated by strong herbaceous, green banana, nettle, and chili pepper notes, offering an incredibly fresh mouthfeel and persistence in this exceptionally fresh extra virgin olive oil.

Pair this oil with braised leafy greens, a pot of beans, poultry, salmon, pork, hummus, medium intensity herbs like tarragon, oregano and thyme.  Great for bread dipping and all purpose cooking.
