Olive cultivars · 08/08
Short answer
Cultivars such as Memecik, Ayvalık and Gemlik help shape aroma. You can explore oils by green, fruity, bitter or pungent descriptors; harvest ripeness, season, processing and storage change the outcome.
From guide to bottle
Read the taste clues for a cultivar, then explore oils in the catalog that name it. Blends are included in the results.
Important note
We do not assign a taste or quality score to a bottle based only on its cultivar. The taste of a table olive does not describe the oil made from that cultivar.
