My Amateur Olive Oil Tasting Today

Olive Oil

We happened to have a few different varieties of olive oil in the house today, so here's a quick tasting via my amateur palate. The green-labeled one on the right was from Don Don Donki, meaning that it came in from Japan, although the label says that the oilves were from Spain. It was the smoothest of the bunch, carrying a soft and velvety richness. That contrasted with the one in the middle from Spain, which was very floral, with a punchy but aromatic touch. The last one was an Italian one from Saizeriya, of all places (yes, they sell bottles of olive oil there), and it was the spiciest of the bunch, with a surprisingly harsh aftertaste. I don't think I'll be buying that one again.
