Have you ever actually tasted olive oil—not on bread, not in a salad, but all by itself? 🫒 Good extra virgin olive oil isn’t supposed to taste like nothing.

Depending on the olive, you might notice fresh grass, herbs, green tomato, apple or almond. A little bitterness can be a good thing. And that peppery feeling in the back of your throat? That can be one of the clues that you're tasting a fresh, polyphenol-rich extra virgin olive oil. And yes, professional olive oil tasters really do slurp it. 😂

We put together an easy guide to how to taste olive oil like a pro, what to look for and why learning to recognize freshness can completely change the way you shop for olive oil.

What’s the difference between fused and infused olive oil?

It actually comes down to when the flavor is introduced. Fused olive oils are traditionally made by crushing fresh olives together with another fresh ingredient—like citrus or peppers—during the milling process. Infused olive oils begin with finished olive oil, which is then flavored with carefully selected ingredients or natural flavors. But there’s something both should have in common: really good olive oil underneath.

At Rocky Mountain Olive Oil, we spend a lot of time talking about olive varieties, harvests, freshness and flavor profiles because those things don't stop mattering when you make a flavored oil. Garlic, Basil, Persian Lime, Rosemary, Baklouti Green Chili, Eureka Lemon…each may bring a completely different flavor to your kitchen, but it all begins with the olive. If you've ever wondered what makes a good fused or infused olive oil, that's the place to start.
