ONCE AGAIN MONINI IS THE EVOO OF CHOICE FOR THE FOOD EDITORS AT EPICURIOUS

In a taste test that involved more than 100 high quality extra virgin olive oils in distribution in the US, Monini was awarded with prestigious results.

Best olive oil overall: Monini GranFruttato

This top-scoring Italian blend is balanced with a lingering peppery bite. Senior editor Maggie Hoffman found it grassy with sage-like undertones. It also tastes, unmistakably, of olives (which, funny enough, you can’t say for every brand).

Best midrange olive oil: Monini D.O.P. Umbria

This oil has a distinct savoriness—almost like rosemary—that would make it play well with something sweet. Emily called out an underlying “creaminess” that made her want to pair it with an orange-loaded salad. Of course, we’d also be happy to drizzle it over a meat and cheese platter, garnish a bowl of winter-squash soup, or bake it into a quick and delicious apple cake.

We want to thank the Epicurious team for their review, and we are very proud of the results.
