When I opened my first can of Roasted almond oil and sniffed,the aroma itself almost made me drool. I prepared a salad of fresh greens topped with fresh orange slices and dressed it with the roasted almond oil and an orange champagne vinegar. I have also used balsamic vinegar. I sprinkled the salad with toasted sliced almonds. Everyone I have served it to thinks it is the best. I have also added a little oil to steamed green beans and added toasted slivered almonds to that.

I had tried walnut oil previously but found it a bit overpowering in flavor. Almond oil is similar, but just a bit lighter in taste, letting the other salad components come through. Store this is the refrigerator. Luscious oil, highly recommend.

Great flavor! Be sure to refrigerate even before opening because oils tend to turn rancid if kept out. The only thing is I wish that I could have bought the oil separately instead of in packs of 3. It will take me years to use it all and with the possibility for rancidity I don't want to have to throw it away. As far as the product itself it is very good quality!

This oil is delicious, as is their walnut oil. But every single time I receive a shipment, the cans are dented. If you order this mention it and ask them to wrap the containers in bubble wrap, don't just throw the bubble wrap in.

This is an excellent product line of oils. I have used other La Tourangelle oils for cooking, but I use their almond oil, mixed with epsom salt, as a natural facial scrub.

The price was extremely reasonable, and the delivery was very quick, even before I expected the arrival.

These oils are lighter in flavor than their descritions. But still a good value. My Biggest problem was the cans were all damaged, not by shipping but by the individual that packaged them. I ordered 5 of the different flavors, each oil has 3 or 4 cans with the offer. In the first shippment 9 cans were crushed, not dented. The 2nd order had 11 cans damaged. My intent was to give these away as gifts; of course in that condition I was not able to! If you want these oils for personal use by all means order them.

I am unable to finish one bottle of almond extract because although it gives cookies a certain special something in store bought cookies, at home, it gives an edge to the flavor that no one likes although I have adhered to the recipe measurements.

I have made a simple ice cream with just this oil and it tasted similar to buttered almond.
