Greek Olive Oil
When my go-to buy olive oil was out of stock, I bought this for a try. It tastes deeper and richer. Very nice willing to buy again
Gaea Cretian Etra Virgin Olive Oil
This is the best reasonable olive oil I've had so far. I'm willing to stick to it as long as it's available. Worth the price for the taste.
tip top extra virgin olive oil
I've been buying this olive oil for many years, and stayed with it even after they change the product. So much of of the olive oil that is available is not extra virgin whatever is stated on the bottle, but I trust this Gaea Cretian oil, even though I harbour a bit of a preference for their original oil which was thicker more peppery, and the old spout made it easier to control the amount of oil used. Nevertheless this remains my go-to oil. And as long as Ocado continues to sell it it will be top of my shopping list. Its healthy and I enjoy the taste. Extra virgin olive oil is prominent in the Mediterranean diet, and appears in all healthy eating recommendations.
This is the best!
Even James Martin recommends Greek olive oil. Being biased, I prefer this Cretan oil to the other Gaea Greek oil, but that's a matter of personal preference.
Lovely tasting oil
Lovely tasting oil with a slightly bitter aftertaste.
Fantastic flavour
I ordered this while looking for an Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil because it was on offer. Never bought a different brand after this first purchase. The pouring spout is really useful to add the oil slowly and not overpouring.
