Like I said, there is an olive oil store only about a mile from my house.
They offer free tasting of all. Once I go there (I'm waiting for a relevant
friend to visit that might enjoy the trip), I'll get to sample many kinds of
REAL olive oil and be able to ask questions.

It's all free but I'll buy a small bottle of something as is probably
expected.
