A L'OLIVIER olive oil with lemon, an aromatic seasoning oil from Nice
A L'OLIVIER makes this extra virgin olive oil in Nice and refines it with real lemon extracts. The result is a fresh seasoning oil that captures the Mediterranean lemon note of southern France, mild in olive flavour and finely citrusy on the finish.
How to use
Use the lemon oil wherever a fresh acidity fits. Whisk it into salad dressings and marinades, drizzle it over grilled fish and seafood, add it as a finish over carpaccio, bruschetta and asparagus, or stir it into dips and homemade mayonnaise.
Good to know: The lemon aroma is heat-sensitive. Use the oil cold or only at the end over the finished dish, not for hot frying, so the freshness is preserved.

What makes this oil special?
