Bastide du Laval “Tradition” Olive Oil
£21.50
Coming from anaerobic and controlled maturation of olives picked green, this TRADITION oil, selected by Alain Roux, is inspired by ancestral know-how to give a very soft olive oil with powerful aromas of black olive, tapenade, truffle.
In the past, olives were left to “slow down” in granaries before extracting the oil in order to obtain better yields. This highly prized oil had disappeared with the advent of modern mills. Bastide du Laval recreated it by “maturing” the olives in the absence of air and humidity with precise temperature control before extracting the oil.
Ripe fruity olive oil, that is to say with aromas cooked apple, black olive or truffle on the nose. On the palate, the aromas are reminiscent of truffles and light cocoa, and especially black tapenade.
The main varieties of AOP Provence are Aglandau, Salonenque, Bouteillan, Cayon.

Cold extraction, produced in France
Very sensitive to temperature differences, our 50cl & 1L cans are likely to deform with the heat in summer or the cold in winter during shipment. These deformations in no way affect the quality of the oil, they are purely aesthetic. We apologize for the inconvenience.
