"I'm addicted," swears a customer from Connecticut who has been anxiously awaiting a new shipment of Segreto Extra Virgin Olive Oil. [1] "Are others crazy about it, too?" Yes, we replied, there are many of you. We have trouble keeping it in stock because its fans are so devoted.
No wonder. This Sicilian oil has a smooth, rounded flavor with hints of grass and artichokes and a touch of spice at the end. The olives are harvested by hand, the production is carefully controlled, and the output dated to assure freshness so that you'll love your latest bottle of Segreto as much as the one before. In fact, its excellence garnered Segreto degli Iblei a 2010 award for Best International Robust in the fierce Los Angeles County Extra Virgin Olive Oil Competition. That means Segreto is sublime when drizzled over grilled or roasted meats, sparingly added to sturdy pasta sauces, or even used to accent just-cut Parmigiano-Reggiano. (But if you find yourself drinking Segreto by the spoonful, we promise not to tell anyone!)
