About Spanish extra virgin olive oil

Spanish extra-virgin olive oil is olive oil produced in Spain and classified as extra virgin, a category of oil obtained from olives without refining. It is used as a dressing, dip, finishing oil and cooking fat, with its flavour and intensity varying by olives and production choices.

The oil is typically liquid at room temperature and ranges from green to golden, sometimes with a fruity aroma and bitter or peppery notes. It is sold in bottles, tins and other containers. The name does not identify a specific cultivar, region, harvest or flavour profile, and products can differ in all of these respects.
