Arancia Rossa
Buy nowOranges are sweet fruits with almost intoxicating floral aromas, widely used for a wide range of products, ranging from spirits and liqueurs to fruit juices and jams. Limiting the use of oranges only to these products would be a shame. It is precisely for this reason that Luigi Tega’s orange flavored oil was created, to fully enhance the unique characteristics of this extraordinary fruit.
Ingredients
Extra virgin olive oil, blood orange
Production Technique
Simultaneous co-pressing of olives and oranges
The orange citrus oil, together with the lemon citrus oil, represents one of the strong points in the range of flavored oils from the Tega oil mill. Thanks to a well-balanced recipe, a perfect union is obtained between extra virgin olive oil and the best Italian blood oranges, giving the oil a unique aromatic profile, in which an intense, fresh and lively aroma of blood orange is perceived. On the palate, the citrus sweetness mixes harmoniously with the delicate bitterness of the olive oil, creating a pleasant balance.
