Lemon, Lime and Orange Olive Oil Sampler, Set of 3 (8.75-oz.)
Add a dash of sublime fruit flavor to fish, pasta, vegetables and salads with this trio of olive oils. Unlike infused olive oils in which the citrus is added later, these handmade delicacies are created by crushing the fruit along with hand-picked California Mission olives. The results "taste like the essence of the fruit, much like a sorbet does," said The New York Times. The three flavors include Blood Orange, Meyer Lemon and Tahitian Lime.
