100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil As with wine, in the world of olive oil tasting there is a specific vocabulary used to describe both positive and negative attributes:
Positive
Bitter - in moderation, biting flavor akin to black tea, dark chocolate. Typical of unripe olives and certain varieties.
Pungent - or piquancy. A tingling or peppery sensation in the back of the throat. A quality especially appreciated by fans of Tuscan oils.
Fruity - flavor and aroma of olives. Ripe olives tend towards nutty, buttery or floral; green olives evoke grassiness, green banana and artichoke.
Negative
Fusty - Characteristic flavor of oil caused by anaerobic fermentation; a result of olives left stored in piles for too long.
Musty - Moldy flavor. Result of olives stored in humid conditions before milling or pressing.
Rancid - Off-flavor. Indicates product on shelf too long or improperly stored.
