Olive Oil

Aldi

Aldi's Solesta Evoo, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 750ml.
Good. The taste is of peel fruits with a fiery peppery finish.

Olive Oil

Waitrose

Waitrose's Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 250ml.
Put it in the trolley. This smooth olive oil delivers green and citrus fruits notes right through to the finish. However, once swallowed a gentle peppery heat warms the throat.

Olive Oil

Aldi

Aldi's Solesta Olive Oil with 15% Extra Virgin Oil, 750ml.
For cooking or where the flavour does not matter. Leave it on the shelf if you want an olive oil for bread dipping or for a salad dressing.

Tesco

Tesco's Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 500ml.
Very difficult to tell the Tesco own brand from Bertollii. Same colour, aroma and finish. Definitely worth a try.

Olive Oil

Waitrose

Waitrose's Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 500ml.
Put it in the trolley. Waitrose has found its own niche with this olive oil. Its own brand is similar in colour to the market leader, but its taste is much softer, with a lovely nutty spicy flavour, without falling short on quality. Only slightly cheaper, but you could be wooed away for good

Olive Oil

Asda

Asda's Extra Virgin Olive Oil 500ml.
Very similar colour to Bertolli, pale yellow with green highlights, but a definite step in the wrong direction when it comes to taste. Not a huge step, admittedly, and half the price, but for the connoisseur, the money saved would not be worth the compromise.
