Show Notes
Johnny Madge, an international olive oil expert, judge, and guide, has been leading olive oil tours since 2008. From featuring olive oils on the menu of his former Italian restaurant to offering guided tastings at his wife’s café in Spain, Johnny has dedicated his career to exploring the flavors and nuances of high-quality olive oil.
In this conversation with Alexandra Kicenik Devarenne, director of the Extra Virgin Alliance, Johnny shares expert tips on pairing olive oils with different ingredients—like enhancing cannellini beans with a bitter, pungent oil—and explains the art of co-milled oils, where olives are pressed together with lemons, oranges, or chilies to create unique flavor profiles.
