Flavoured Oils Explained

Natural infusions created by nature, not by chemistry.

Every bottle begins with premium Sardinian extra virgin oliv oil. Carefully selected Mediterranean herbs, citrus fruits, spices and mushrooms add character without taking away the identity of the oil.

Why people love flavoured oliv oils

A good flavoured oliv oil can transform a simple dish within seconds. It brings balance, aroma and a clear culinary direction without the need to prepare several additional ingredients.

Instead of crushing garlic, chopping herbs or zesting lemons every time you cook, naturally flavoured oils offer a convenient and consistent way to create Mediterranean flavour at home.

Natural ingredients

Made with natural Mediterranean ingredients

Our collection brings together lemon, basil, oregano, garlic, chilli, porcini mushrooms, black truffle and rosemary. Where freeze-dried ingredients are used, water is removed gently to help preserve their recognisable aroma and flavour without relying on synthetic-tasting notes.

Kitchen knowledge

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Heating truffle oil until it smokes — its most delicate aroma is lost.
  • Using too much chilli oil before tasting the dish.
  • Treating every flavoured oil as a frying oil instead of using it as a finishing ingredient.
  • Using one flavour on every dish rather than matching the oil to the food.
