Olive oil in Montreal?

[Vinfidel]

hmm... objective journalist or opinionated food critic

Whether she thinks Manni is worth the money or not, it is NOT her place as a supposedly objective journalist to make a subjective assessment about a product she has never consumed, or subjective assessment about those who consume said product.

umm, before you blow a blood vessel, Mr. Gandey:

a) Lesley Chesterman resigned as the board moderator for Montreal eGullet, so she is here purely as someone with a passion for food, and can say or think whatever she wants.

b) her only responsibility as a journalist is to her employer(s) and paying readers. and hence, not to you (unless you're paying for and/or reading the Gazette at the time) or any people posting here.

such animosity...

I already organized blind olive oil tasting and Manni was always in the top 3.

who else was in the top 3

Depend on wich occasion but some oil from France and Spain were in the top 5. Manni and Prunatelli were always the 2 top Italiens.

Is there any chance of finding some of this year's oil from Italy by the 12th of november? If so, where? I am planning a degustation of sorts which I would like to treat with new oil if I can. I specify Italian oil simply because the cuisine will be italian.

If you say it's the best, I hope to hell you tried all the others, +/- 500 producers.
