Corto TRULY | 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil | Floral Notes | FlavorLock Packaging | 500 mL | Twin Pack (2)

As with many others I was first introduced to Corto at a restaurant where the waiter provided us with the brand. Corto is made in California from organically grown olives and using 3 types of olives it provides a well rounded flavor profile and a very rich taste. My wife and I have been to several olive oil tastings in the state and were never impressed but Corto is in a class by itself and as good as any of the premium EVOO that we have bought that are from Greece.It was not immediately apparent when looking for organic olive oil that many ship in 375mm and a few in 500ml bottles. With the Corto 500ml bottle one gets 33% more than with the often used 375ml bottles and so the Corto is both an excellent olive oil and an excellent value.Highly recommend the Eleton glass olive oil dispenser for dribbling out the olive oil. I saturate my daily piece of toast of homemade olive bread that is made without wheat flour (or the Roundup). It is a perfect combination.I like the Greek EVOO but have no way of knowing if they are produced organically or whether they are using the vacuum removal of the olives that kills so many bird each year. With the California EVOO I get a "made in America" product that does not need to be shipped thousands of miles on a ship with the associated negative environmental impact.

I never thought a day would come when I had strong feelings about olive oil- but here we are. I had my first taste of this sweet nectar at a little Italian restaurant in Michigan. Just some fresh bread with olive oil, and yet my mind was blown. What is this flavor? Nirvana? Probably. This is what olive oil is SUPPOSED to taste like. I was embarrassed but I had to KNOW what brand of olive oil this was. That’s when she said “Corto” (I actually thought she said Gordo… so it took me awhile to find it), and my life was forever changed. I will never go back to any other brand, and YOU (yes you, the reader) shouldn’t settle for second best either. If you want an olive oil with flavor, dimension, richness, and a smooth profile then THIS is the oil for you. When in doubt, put some CORTO on it! (me about any problem ever now)

We first tasted this oil in a favorite Italian restaurant where they've used it over their salads for some years. Each time we were there, we raved to each other about the olive oil as we savored the beautifully dressed greens and dipped our bread in our salad bowls to sop up every drop. We finally asked the owner what they use and she told us Corto. I looked it up online and ordered. Now our homemade salads are as delicious as the restaurant's. This oil is delightfully fragrant and fruity and perfect for our taste.

I purchased this Olive oil after having it at a restaurant and was excited to receive. However, both bottles expire a month from purchase - TERRIBLE. And now I am unable to return.

One of the few on the list of "real" Olive oil. Check the sources of your oil. So many are mixed with Canola Oil and other harmful oils. Corto is always on the top of the list of oils that are pure. I love this brand and it is always fresh when I order.

So far, of all the ones I have tried, this has a fabulous after taste like a good olive oil should have

A great product ... I have been using the California Grown Corto Truly Extra Virgin Olive Oil for my various cooking needs for many years ... wonderful flavor ... always a plus to our meals, never a detriment. Am always concerned that some day the product may not be available ... hope that never happens!

This is a high quality olive oil that is delicious and best used for dipping with a crusty baguette. It is also a great value, much less expensive than what my favorite Italian restaurant was charging. I gave one bottle as a gift to a very pleased hostess.
