Tasting notes
Extra virgin olive oil with the fragrance of Sicilian lemon, in a mist. Over grilled fish, shrimp, roasted vegetables, a green salad or a plate of pasta it does what a squeeze of lemon and a drizzle of oil do, in one pass — the aroma and gloss of both, without the water.
Why a spray?
Because finishing food is often about distribution, not quantity. Mantova's Sprayleggero system keeps the oil inside a sealed bag and uses compressed air outside that bag to dispense it. The oil does not mix with chemical propellants, and the package protects it from air and light even after opening. The maker says the system can reduce oil use by up to 90% compared with a traditional bottle.
What does Sicilian lemon olive oil taste like?
Fresh, fragrant citrus over fruity extra virgin olive oil. The lemon component is selected Sicilian lemon essential oil without the acidic component of lemon juice, so you get lemon aroma and brightness without making a crisp salad, grilled fish or finished pasta watery.
1. Mist
Press fully for a fine, even cloud over salad, fish, vegetables, focaccia or a finished plate.
2. Stream
Use more controlled pressure when you want a narrow application over pasta, burrata or grilled seafood.
3. Drop
For the smallest finishing touch, use light pressure to place oil precisely where you want it.
The 15-second finish: grilled fish
Season branzino, halibut, sole or shrimp simply with salt. Cook until just done. Immediately before serving, mist with Sicilian Lemon EVOO Spray. Finish with herbs and flaky salt. You get lemon fragrance and olive-oil gloss without a puddle of lemon juice on the plate.
Recipe: Lemon burrata for four
Arrange burrata with ripe tomatoes. Season the tomatoes with flaky sea salt and black pepper. Mist the entire plate with the lemon spray, concentrating lightly on the burrata. Add basil and warm bread. The lemon sits above the dairy rather than watering it down.
Recipe: 12-minute lemon pasta
Cook spaghetti until al dente. Toss with a little pasta water, Parmigiano and black pepper. Off the heat, mist generously with the lemon EVOO spray and toss once more. Finish each plate with another light mist. Add parsley, basil or capers if you like.
Also try it on
Roasted asparagus, artichokes, zucchini, grilled chicken, carpaccio, arugula, white beans, avocado, focaccia, grilled corn, potatoes, salmon, shrimp, scallops and ricotta toast.
Why the technology matters
Fratelli Mantova says its Sprayleggero technology was introduced in 2012 after more than a century of family experience with oils. The oil lives in a gas-tight internal bag while compressed air remains outside it. That separation means what leaves the nozzle is the condiment itself rather than oil mixed with a chemical propellant.
From an Italian oil house founded in 1905
The Mantova family traces its food-business history to 1905. The company began producing flavored oils in 1985 and introduced Sprayleggero in 2012. Today it produces in Italy and sells across more than 75 countries.

One important distinction
Fresh lemon juice brings acidity and water. This spray brings lemon aroma plus olive oil. Keep both in the kitchen: squeeze when a recipe needs acid; spray when the plate needs fragrance, gloss and a controlled finish.
