• extra virgin,
• pure blended olive oil,
• Olive pomace oil.

Each species has its own characteristics and is useful in its own way. A gift set may include only a few types or all. Depending on the completeness of the collection will depend on its cost.

What is the difference between different types

extra virgin considered the best cold-pressed delicacy. In the production, the fruits of the European olive are used, which are subjected only to mechanical stress.

It has a pleasant aroma, and its color is light green. This product is suitable for salad dressing. The taste features lie in the proper cultivation of olives and the lack of filtration. In any kitchen there is a worthy place not only for high-quality oil, but there should also be a place for kitchen accessories:

The second type is Virgin olive oil.- no less useful, as it is obtained from repeated cold pressing, which does not spoil its quality.

The extract retains all the beneficial properties and vitamins. This type is inferior to Extra virgin only in taste. It has a less pronounced taste, but this does not make it bad.

Pure blended olive oil is a mixture of refined product and the residue of the first pressing. It is used for cooking, as it does not have a specific rich taste, like the first two types.

Last look (Pomace) considered the cheapest, as it is made from the leftovers after the preparation of the highest grade.

Natural butter can be produced with various flavors.

Which olive oil to choose for a gift

Like wine, olive oil comes in many varieties, both in taste and value. It is important to understand that you can choose any taste that you like best, but the price should not be neglected. As a gift, you need to give only Extra Virgin oil, since only it has the taste and aroma characteristic of olive oil and has no benefits. Cheap refined olive oil will be similar to sunflower oil, and it is unlikely that anyone will like such a gift.

If you don’t know which country’s oil to choose, don’t worry too much. The statement that Italian or Spanish oil is better than others is just a stereotype, so choose which one you like best in taste or appearance. Beautiful packaging certainly does not improve the quality of the oil, but for a gift, the appearance is very important. So, if you like the packaging of Tunisian oil more than Spanish, then feel free to take Tunisian.

Let's start with a simple one: donate not one, but 2 or 3 bottles of different types of oil. Bottles in a wooden box with hay or something similar look very nice.

You can add a bottle of wine to the oil. But here it is better that the country producing wine and oil be the same.
In general, bottle mixes will look winning. For example, you can put together a mix of oil, wine and balsamic vinegar.

Another great mix is ​​Greek Salad. Add feta cheese and canned olives to the butter. Pack in a beautiful gift box and you're done.

A cookbook with a bottle of olive oil tied to it on a beautiful bright bow will look great.

The main thing is that the recipes in the book contain olive oil as an ingredient and are in one way or another connected with some of the Mediterranean cuisines.

And best of all, improvise, based on the preferences of the person you are going to give a gift to!

Today, gift sets are outrageously expensive, but in fact they are nothing that you could not make yourself. Just a beautiful design and a well-chosen mix of products make a beautiful image, and it seems to you that you cannot do this. Nonsense.

Just collect an interesting mix, buy a beautiful box, some decorative filler, or a beautiful towel, decorative flowers. Place the products beautifully, tie a beautiful bow and sign! Voila! A cool exclusive gift is ready!
