Product Description:
This selection of olives contains medium to large round to oval fruits. The flesh is distinguished by its firm crisp texture a characteristic retained by careful processing. The colour varies from pale straw to dark olive.
On the palate these olives display an intense olive flavour with nutty and fresh apple undertones. The addition of selected native Australian herbs contributes both savoury and citrus characters complemented by balanced acidity and saltiness.
Enjoy these tasty olives straight from the pack as an aperitive. Or use in your favourite recipes – chicken tagine, slow braised lamb shoulder, or on pizzas. ALTO Table Olives are also an ideal addition to antipasto platters.
ALTO Table Olives are rich in polyphenols and antioxidants.
