Great Taste Award Winner 2019
Oro Bailen Hojiblanca extra virgin olive oil won a Great Taste Star from the Guild of Fine Foods in 2020. Commenting on Oro Bailen Hojiblanca, the Great Taste judges ...” What an exquisite colour of golden green, perfectly clear. The aroma of freshly cut grass also has elements of cold buttered artichokes and green bananas. The mouthfeel and texture is silky smooth with a fresh young olive fruitiness, a little bitterness midpalate, and a warm and reassuring pepperiness on the finish….Vibrant in colour with a grassy, citrus nose. Peppery, meadowy and fruity in taste.”

Very Grassy
I purchased this oil to use in a spanish Apple Cake recipie. The cake ended up being overpowered by grassy taste. I hoped that I would pick out more of the Fruity flavours. The cake went in the bin. I will try some the oil in a salad dressing and perhapse on sourdough toast. I will update the review when I have finished experimenting.
Fantastic tasting oil
I always thought that expensive olive oil was a waste. But since trying this I am a convert - the taste and aroma are much stronger. So with less oil, you get my better taste. The bottle has an excellent slow pour system which allows you to drizzle sparingly
Bitter and unusable
I have had this oil before and thought it was lovely, however the bottle I have just opened must be off. The taste is awful and really bitter and unfortunately not usable.
Not impressed
To be honest I was expecting a great oil but there id nothing special about it. Can't wait for the new oil of 2020 to come out.
best olive oil for dipping the bread
i gave a try of this as it got the taste awards, and its amazing.full of flavour love it dipping with the sourdough i will definitely buying it again
Hassibo
Superb oil from this award winning brand. Went very well with a garden tomato salad as well as grilled fish fillets.
