Farmers for centuries have crushed small quantities of olives with lemons for use in their own homes. All the olives are harvested by hand and the citrus picked at a perfect ripeness. The olives and fruit are crushed using a tradition stone mill. This crushing produces a paste which is pressed with low pressure and the juice centrifuged to release the water from the oil. Only the oil from this first pressing is used, as it is the most intense and flavorful. This rare olive oil is golden green in color with a wonderful citrus aroma. | | | Features: | |

The lemon shines throughFeb 21, 2007
By David Stephens

The oil itself is excellent and the lemon flavor is just right--stronger than the stuff that you might get in a local grocer's, at least here in Texas--but it doesn't have a processed, chemical taste.
I find that using it as the only oil in a vinaigrette is too strong, and so you needn't go to the expense, but if it comprises a fourth to a half of the oil, and if the other oil is good, the balance is quite nice. In fact, if the acid in the vinaigrette is a good sherry vinegar, the flavor of the lemon in the oil is more noticeable than the vinegar.

SuperbSep 17, 2006
By Adrasteia
Agrumato oil pressed with lemons is superb on salads and in cooking. The lemon flavor is not overwhelming but adds a freshness that is surprising. You can use it in most recipes that call for EVOO. Try it in untraditional ways and you'll find you love it.
Heavenly Lemony Olive-y OilMay 08, 2009
By Laurie Eckhout
This olive oil is sublime. The lemon flavor and scent is not too over-powering. I'm looking forward to finding all kinds of reasons to use it!
an amazing salad dressingOct 03, 2008
By PAO
This is by far the best olive oil infused with pressed lemons that I have ever tried. For a really spectacular salad dressing that is sure to win rave reviews mix together Agrumento Extra Virgin Olive Oil with Pressed Lemons and "Marukan" brand seasoned gourmet Rice Vinegar Lite in approximate equal amounts (or a little more of the rice vinegar depending on taste). If desired add a little salt and pepper and wisk all together until blended. This is so easy, but so delicious! Enjoy!
