Cavalli oil presents the most typically marked Tuscan aroma in the nose due to the prevalence of Moraiolo olives, with a clear aroma of bitter olives.In the mouth the persistent taste of artichoke, thistle and again of bitter olives prevails. The pungency is slightly belated but very intense, reminiscent of chilli pepper. Because of its intensity Cavalli oil is appropriate on recipes with strong tastes, such as “ribollita”, black cabbage soups, grilled meats and vegetables, and “fagioli all’uccelletto” (beans with tomato and sausage). It is at its best on “caciucco”, the well-known fish soup from Livorno.
