‘The best selection of olive oils in seven years of Savantes’ was
the conclusion of the presenters of Savantes in Sevilla in Spain and

winners of prestigious awards around the world.

tasting, culinary uses, blending and marketing extra virgin olive
oils. The participants’ interests included production, high end
retail buying, trading and export, brand marketing and culinary
uses.

on the difficult task of detecting faulty olive oils and Simon Field
led exercises in blending for consistency and economics.

Sevilla by Enrique Sanchez, the head of culinary arts at the
international Spanish cooking school, Escuela de Hosteleria de
Sevilla, The presentation covered the traditional uses of olive oil
in cooking as well as modern leading edge techniques such as
