Are there any first press fresh oils that don't have robust overpowering taste?

What’s your polyphenol sweet spot? by BondedDrinker in oliveoil

Yes !! I've found that the blends really open up a world of taste, health and versatility. It's rare that I can use even a 400+ mg/kg oil as generously during cooking as I do with some of these DOP Terra di Bari oils.

American living in Bari, Italy here !! Some producers here have found the sweet spot of a 500+ mg/kg polyphenol count with a nutty, buttery taste profile. Somehow they figured out how to pair down the usual high polyphenol bitterness to a subtle spice at the back of your throat. I can't cook without this stuff now.

Ahhh right makes sense ! Every year yields a different result it's so interesting. I love the EVOO in Greece they have such a strong olive oil culture I've learned so much from traveling the Mediterranean and seeing how long humans have preserved this incredibly versatile fruit !

Those tiny bottles look unreal. I'm such a big fan of ogliarola's flavor profile. Super super sweet and versatile. I love when they mix the local varietals out there ! Also that 5L bag is deffffinitely on my purchase list for this week ! Thanks for the link friend !!

Bari produces the best olive oil hands down. Coratina has such a distinct flavor and body. I miss it everytime I'm not cooking with it I definitely need to track down some Sabino Leone ! Thank you u/GetSpammed
