Morocco Gold Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting At Fortnum & Mason, Picadilly

We were thrilled to hold another tasting event of Morocco Gold extra virgin olive oil at the amazing Fortnum & Mason in Piccadilly.

It is always a great pleasure to meet our customers and to tell them the story behind Morocco Gold. What is so special about Fortnum & Mason is that their customers come from all parts of the world as well as the UK. We made new friends from the USA, Greece, China and a host of other countries. The great thing is, we can ship Morocco Gold extra virgin olive oil to customers anywhere in the world, so you don’t have to worry about packing our oil into your luggage!

So what do people like about Morocco Gold? First of all, it’s taste, with its distinctive green fruitiness, with hints of almond, fresh turf and the peppery aftertaste (but not too aggressive) of a high quality extra virgin olive oil.

They also love it’s versatility in the kitchen and that you can do so much with it. Here are some of the ways of using this wonderful extra virgin olive oil we shared:

Dip

Using extra virgin olive oil like Morocco Gold as a dip for crispy, fresh bread is a great way to experience the fresh, fruity taste.

Salads

A splash of extra virgin olive oil mixed with vinaigrette makes salads super healthy and taste delicious.

Soup

A simple drizzle of this scrumptious extra virgin olive oil over your soup can make all the difference. It adds a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ to the hot soup and a special richness.

Roasting

For oven roast chicken, chorizo and loads of veg, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, not only helps the food to cook, it also adds a premium, tasty addition to the dish.

There are of course other cosmetic and skincare uses for high quality olive oil, indeed there was some ‘rubbing-on’ at our tasting!

We are also delighted to meet people who have either been to Morocco and enjoyed the richness and diversity of this wonderful country, or are planning a visit to enjoy a further taste of the exotic.

Ice Cream

Yup, you read that correctly – ice cream! A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil over your ice cream really helps bring out the flavour in the ice cream and adds to the creamy texture.

There are of course other cosmetic, health rewards and skincare uses for high quality olive oil, indeed there was some ‘rubbing-on’ at our tasting!
