Olive oil is a liquid fat which is obtained from olives which are grown on trees in the Mediterranean. Oil is used for many things but more commonly used for cooking, frying foods or as dressing for salads. What makes Cycladi oil special though? well it is not just flavoursome but it has many health benefits.
I was gifted a small sample on a PR related basis to taste at home courtesy of Cycladi and I was very impressed from the look, colour and taste.
