Default buying EVOO

I agree with that, many highend products are tto strong, unless they are
from Liguria or some other northern region. Some years ago I payd like
12 euros for a half-liter bottle of sicilian EVO oil from Planeta, a
renowned wine producer: very good, wonderful flavors, but it was so
strong that it killed almost everything you dressed with it.

I've tried it sometimes and it has a balanced nice flavor, here it goes
in 1 liter bottles for about 7-8 euros, and it's not uncommon to find it
on offer. Another nice producer is Farchioni from Umbria, with a wide
range of offerings and prices, from DOP high end oil to cheaper non-DOP
oil, and I never get disappointed.
