The quality of an olive oil was, in the past, determined by its chemical analysis which estimated, for example, its acidity. This system, however, did not guarantee the goodness of organoleptic characteristics such as taste or fragrance, which still today must be evaluated by sensory evaluation. Precisely because sensory evaluation is, unfortunately, subjective and making it objective is a problem. However, it also means that we can determine for ourselves whether that oil is right for us.
Pour a soup spoonful of the oil under examination into a small glass (such as a plastic coffee cup). Place the palm of your hand on the cup and shake it for a few moments. Remove your hand, if present, you will be able to taste the volatile aromas, more or less strong, of fruitiness and other vegetable sensations (apple, tomato...). For the best tasting aspirate several times with both nostrils. The actual tasting takes place through the taste buds of the side walls of the tongue. Repeat the shaking of the glass covered by the palm of your hand several times in order to slightly raise the temperature of the oil inside. Pour a few drops of oil on the tongue and let it swirl in the mouth so that it reaches the taste buds. Then hold the glass under your nose and inhale several times to memorize the flavors/odors and expel the oil from your mouth. The bitterness and pungency of the oil and its possible defects (acidulous, metallic, wood-like taste, etc.) will come to light. The tasting can, of course, be repeated, but only after freeing yourself from the previous flavors or after having rinsed your mouth after chewing bread or apple.
