The Mediterranean shrub called Olive produce small bitter fruits known as Olive, and is of major agricultural importance in the Mediterranean region, and is the source of Olive Oil and as the fermented or preserved fruit that is one of the core ingredients of Mediterranean cuisine.
The green olive, picked fully grown but unripe are picked and due to the presence of Oleuropein, are not edible on their own, young fruits are very bitter and the bitterness has to be removed by curing and fermentation, to make them edible.
Black olives are ripe olives, the fruits are picked at full maturity and the fruits have Oleuropein, the phenolic bitter compound found in its skin, although in much lower concentration than in the young green fruits, still the Oleuropein is leached to remove the bitterness and then preserved in brine and sterilised during the canning process.
Sliced black olives are used as topping on sandwiches and pizzas, in cocktails like the Martini, green olives are used and the brine flavour doesn’t go with Sweet Vermouth and many mixologists thus prefer using a Dry Vermouth which pairs well with the brine flavour of the olive. Black olives are used in some cocktails too and variations of the Dirty Martini, however green olive is more often used.
