Le Terre di Colombo - Gift Case with 100% Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil (750 ml), Riviera Olive Paste (212 ml) and Pitted Riviera Olives in EVOO (212 ml)

This oil from Imperia Liguria Italy is a superb extra virgin .Good for condiment salads and veg. Also for light frying.Come with a jar of pitted olives that aren't oil and very tasty as well as a jar of olives paté that I put on tast or crostini, good for a snack

This is very good quality oil, nice flavour and very pleasant. Taste is leaning more towards sweet than bitter perhaps fruity but not in a sweet sugary way, can't really explain it but tastes excellent with salad

I’ve been using this oil for a while now and here’s my view on how it’s fared. It’s a lovely golden colour and comes wrapped in gold paper. The flavour is quite strong; fruity and quite peppery. Personally I find it a bit too harsh compared to good quality (by that I mean expensive stuff like Iliada) Greek olive oil which suits my taste better.That said this is a quality oil and works well for dipping with balsamic. It’s also works well roasting veg and looks good too due to that lovely colour.All in all it’s a good product, although for me I’m going to stick to Greek oils going forwards. If you prefer the flavour of Italian oils then I’d recommend this.

I actually decant this into a bigger bottle for my daily needs - but was actually surprised how much is in each bottle. It is very light in flavour, perfect for salads. Smells divine too, very fresh. A decent, daily oil.

Excellent

This is truly an excellent gift collection of Le Terre di Colombo products which I have been enjoying these last 2 weeks. It contains a bottle of their finest olive oil (750ml), a glass jar of olives and another jar of Riviera olive paste. Both of these glass jars were incredibly enjoyable. The olives were full of flavour and very rich, clearly not your average olives you would buy in your supermarket. The spread was equally enjoyable and I had it on lovely toasted bread for a tapenade styled lunch.As mentioned, this isn’t your average olive oil, nor is it one for your everyday cooking. I say that because this is truly an olive oil where you would want to savour the taste and consistency. This Olive Oil by Le Terre di Colombo is truly sublime. It has a mouth-watering, delicious and light fruity taste which is silky smooth in texture. It really brings out the flavours of particular salads such as roasted peppers and mozzarella with a sprinkle of sea salt.The bottle is very beautifully and sets it apart from other olive oils in the premium range. I love the addition of the old school bottle cap which adds some charm and character to the bottle.I can’t currently comment on price as I don’t have access to this information but I would assume it to be around the £20 mark. It is truly a high quality olive gift set so if you’re willing to spend a bit more, you won’t be disappointed!Thank you for reading my honest review, I hope you found it helpful! :)

We absolutely love Olive oil in our house and use nothing but so this set was no brainer to purchase.A nice jar full of delicious olives disappeared within a day of the item arriving at our doorstep.The whole set looks expensive and in the future I am thinking it could be a lovely gift, packaging is gorgeous and the actual Extra Virgin Olive oil is full of flavour and goes down really well with a bit of bread dipped in it with balsamic vinegar and a bit of sea salt.The real treat was the olive pate though. Same size as the olive jar this was something I've never had before. I was kind of expecting an olive pesto and I apologise to my Italian friends for such vulgarity but this suppressed my expectations! We had it with tagliatelle pasta and few of the olives that I managed to save from my partner and fresh cherry tomatoes with mushrooms.Delicious and won't break the bank. Treat yourself or even better give it as a gift.

Has a very nice flavor

Un sapore veramente delicato e inteso .Saporito.

Ottimo prodotto

De sabor suave, parece bajo en acidez, tiene algunas notas picantes al final pero ideal para tomar en crudo para desayuno con pan.Todo un lujo de aceite de Italia. El primer aceite italiano que pruebo y me encanta.Ahora quiero probar un aceite de Oliva virgen de Grecia.

Das Olivenöl „Le Terre di Colombo“ wird von der italienischen Firma Piccardo & Savore Srl vertrieben und kommt im Set mit einem Glas entsteinter Riviera-Oliven und einem Glas Olivenpastete, ebenfalls aus Riviera-Oliven.Die Oliven sollen aus Italien stammen und dort verarbeitet worden sein.Das Olivenöl ist in mechanischem Verfahren kaltgepresst worden.Die Glasflasche mit Olivenöl ist ansprechend in Goldfolie gehüllt. Das Set eignet sich sehr gut zum Verschenken.Die Haltbarkeit bei Lieferung im Juli 2021 betrug 07/11/22.Meine Familie und ich legen Wert auf gutes Olivenöl.Normalerweise beziehen wir unser Öl in 5 Liter Kanistern von einem kleinen griechischen Familienunternehmen.Ich verwende es für fast alles in der Küche, für Salate, zum Kochen und leichten Braten.Meine Vorliebe liegt bei milden Ölen ohne bitteren Abgang.Das Olivenöl Terre di Colombo riecht und schmeckt im Vergleich minimal kräftiger, mit Anklängen von Gras/Heu.Es sind keine besonderen Bitternoten feststellbar, es riecht auch nicht ranzig oder nach Mineralölen, wie es bei manchen Ölen leider der Fall ist.Die entsteinten Oliven und die Olivenpaste eignen sich gut für Fingerfood und haben uns recht gut geschmeckt.Fazit:Bei Olivenöl sind die Geschmäcker unterschiedlich.Wer Wert auf ein relativ mildes Öl ohne stärkere Bitternoten legt, dem wird dieses Öl schmecken.Die Verpackung des Sets ist ansprechend, man kann es gut verschenken.Bei Olivenöl wird viel gemogelt und gepanscht. Nachprüfen kann ich die Qualität nicht, da muss man sich auf die Herstellerangaben und seinen Geschmackssinn verlassen.Uns hat’s geschmeckt, deshalb vergebe ich 5 Sterne.

Este pack "Le terre di Colombo" nos sorprende con una degustación de sus mejores productos, su aceite de oliva Virgen Extra, abanderado de la marca, y sus dos productos estrella como son las aceitunas sin hueso Riviera en aceite de oliva V.E. y su delicioso paté de oliva Riviera igualmente aderezado con su excelente aceite de oliva V.E.Su aceite se caracteriza por su suave dulzor acompañado de un sabor amargo y un picante medio/bajo, es muy diferente a nuestros aceites de oliva virgen extra, lo vas a notar de inmediato pero no por eso va a ser menos agradable y exquisito. Está prensado con aceitunas medianas con un agradable aroma a hierbas, en este caso no distingue ninguna variedad en especial. Al ser un tanto afrutado y aromático está especialmente indicado en verduras, hortalizas y carnes a la parrilla.Le acompaña un pequeño tarro de paté hecho íntegramente de olivas Riviera, con un 10% de aceite de oliva virgen extra, es súper exquisito y nos puede servir como delicioso aperitivo además de un excelente aderezo para salsas. Pero si te encanta el aceite de oliva como a nosotros, en tostadas o en pan recién horneado, ya te adelanto que es un verdadero "nom stop".Y si bueno es su paté, su tarrito de aceitunas deshuesadas cubiertas de aceite de oliva V.E. no es para menos, es una de las versiones gastronómicas más increíbles que pueda degustar el paladar, tiene un sabor tan particular e intenso que echarse a la boca está pequeña y carnosa aceituna ligada a su aceite de oliva, es una verdadera explosión de sabor. Lo que no sabía es que esta aceituna tuviera además tanta importancia en preparaciones culinarias, pero para ser sincera no hay nada cómo degustarla como aperitivo, en ensaladas y como su paté, en carnes y pescados. Esta aceituna hay que degustarla a temperatura ambiente para captar todo su agradable sabor.En definitiva, nos vamos a encontrar todo un repertorio de sabores de la tierra, en tres formatos diferentes pero muy ligados entre sí donde la variedad de aceituna Riviera es la que destaca en esta oferta culinaria, 100% italiana. El precio de cada producto por separado supera a la del pack, por lo tanto, es una solución muy recomendada para ir abriendo apetito.
