Not feeling the famous peppery sensation at the back of your throat?
Before you conclude that your EVOO has changed, there are a few things to consider. Your palate may have adapted, the foods you've recently eaten can affect taste perception, and natural differences between olive harvests can influence pungency.
💡 Remember: Not feeling a strong pepper kick does not automatically mean an olive oil is fake.
Always buy from trusted sources and pay attention to quality, origin, and authenticity.
