The first time I tried the Basil Infused olive oil by ‘the gift of oil’ was drizzled across a salad I had made and the only sound I made was Mmmmmm. The taste was so fresh and perfectly balanced, not too strong, not too weak, just pure fresh yumminess. They are perfect for drizzling on salad, to have with cheese and dipping bread into.

The bottles and packaging are great quality and would make a really nice gift. But if you want them all to yourself ( which I wouldn’t blame you!) they also look super smart on your worktop. ‘The gift of oil’ also have lemon infused oil and mint infused oil, and as soon as our caramelised onion and basil oils are used up these will be the next two we choose.
