Oil tasting

Olfactory Analysis

To breathe deeply in with both nostrils and to repeat after a certain period of time, as olfaction easily tends to addiction, even if temporary. The olfactory membrane is then sensitized also during tasting, when oil heating inside the mouth favours the evaporation of its volatile components.

Visual Analysis It includes the assessment of three different features: Clearness – Density – Colour.

As for clearness, the parameter varies depending on the age and filtration processes oil has or has not undergone. Suspension and deposits may be natural and may not prejudice the oil quality: however, an excessive deposit indicates slight attention paid during the processing and may damage its quality too.

Density mostly depends on its origin.

Colour changes according to:

– harvest time

– kind of olives

– suffered ageing

– employed crusher.
