For example, Tuscany extra virgin olive oil has a more peppery and spicy bite with some bitter notes. Meanwhile, the Hyblean Mountains (Monti Iblei) in Southeastern Sicily are bursting with flavor and often have a well-rounded fruity essence. In Trentino-Alto Adige, the only area suitable for growing olive trees is around Lake Garda, and the oil produced has a lighter flavor and color than in other areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are just a few examples of how olive oils can vary - and each impacts your salads, pastas, stuffed peppers, cakes, and other creations differently.
