The Mariola Valley in southern Spain is home to lush olive groves that bear Arbequina olives, known for being sweet and aromatic with fresh flavor and a touch of bitterness. These are the only olives used in this flawless, clear lightly green bottle of extra-virgin oil that sings with fruity notes of apple, verdant herbs, and fresh almond. A mild spiciness is detectable at the finish with just a slight bitter hint.

Use this oil to make from scratch your own mayonnaises, aiolis, and vinaigrettes, or drizzle it on steamed or grilled fish, salted meats, risottos, and carpaccio appetizers. It’s also delectable on fresh fruits and veggies.

Fairway Marketplace is brought to you by Fairway Market, a specialty food chain that started back in 1933 with a small fruit and vegetable stand on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Today, Fairway Market is legendary for its experts and expertise in all things food, and a relentless obsession with quality throughout all of the different departments in its stores. In December of 2011, Fairway launched this online shop, so that we could bring the best of the best of what Fairway offers, at the same great values, to those who don’t live near one of our stores. Why keep all of this foodie goodness to ourselves? That simply would not be fair.
