Olive Oil from Villa Stabbia in Gourmet Book of Olive Oils
October 2004
In 2003 all Danish importers of olive oil were contacted by the
writer /journalist Rie Boberg, as she was in the middle of writing a book about olive oil.
She wanted to include a description of the best gourmet olive oils available
in Denmark at the end of the book.
Importers of Villa Stabbia oil - "Det lille Enoteca" and "Casa Toscana" forwarded her a
bottle of oil, which was tasted and judged by two professional Italian olive oil
tasters.
Despite the year (2003) was when the oil was slightly unbalanced
due to the extremely long draught (no rain from February until August),
the oil came third. In addition, it was the only organic oil chosen amongst
the top 12 oils that were named.
The book was published in October 2004 and the Danish food magazine "Spis Med" featured
an article on the book.
