Irini olive oil from Loblaw

[carissima]

Has anybody tried Irini olive oil from Greece sold in Loblaws?
I'm looking for an extra vergine olive oil with a mild, non-peppery taste.

I bought it on a whim a week or so ago. I have a more peppery (and pricey!) Tuscan oil that I use for salad dressings and drizzling, but for cooking, I'm using the Irini oil right now. I would definitely describe the flavour as mild and more buttery (meaning not very acidic). It's pleasant, but probably not something I'd use for a salad dressing, since I find the flavour less distinct than some other oils. That might be exactly why you'd like it, though. Give it a try. The price is certainly right.

Thanks a lot :)
