a shelf of olive oil and balsamics
Delightful
Did not get to try but intriguing
Soooo good!!!! My favorite along with the Dennisimo
olives in jars
There are so many oils to try, today we got evoo garlic, butter and lemon. Another customer almost convinced me to get a fourth.
This was good but a bit too sour in my opinion.

I didn't get the zing that my peers did with this one. Very aromatic
A bit bolder than Imagined but still good. Great aromatics
Absolutely delightful

Let me tell you what a treat it was taking a field trip to this location. The go to place if you're an olive oil / vinegar connoisseur or a group of chefs tapping into new flavors to pair with amazing future dishes. Exceptional varieties of infusions available with descriptions on each one and you're able to sample before you buy. They also have a great pairing list to help give ideas. Other treats are available for purchase such as gourmet olives, pastas, sauces, cookies, cookbooks, gorgeous charcuterie accessories, herbs and spices, and some housewares. Great customer service and attention, amazing atmosphere. I definitely recommend stopping in here before building your next charcuterie board.

The selection of oils and vinegars is outstanding. I always have to have aged balsamic vinegar in my pantry, particularly the 18 or 25 yr old vinegar - thick and sweet. Strawberries drizzled with it or chocolate balsamic drizzled over berries and ice cream.There are so many olive oils and so many flavored oils. I usually like a quality oil for dipping, salad dressings and to splash in a morning smoothie. The owners and staff are very knowledgeable and can guide you to your favorite or let you try something new for your next dish. There are also seasonings and kitchen accessories that would look beautiful in your kitchen. Unfortunately, we are full time RV travelers so I tried not to look at all the pretties. I encourage anyone who likes tasting oils and vinegars or who are curious about more than grocery store oils and vinegars, go to Alfonso's and make an afternoon of it. You won't ne sorry.

I've been getting olive oil from Alphonso's for years and just realized I've never left them a review. This place is awesome! Every time I go I. There the staff offers to take me on a little sampling tour. I love food and cooking so I'm always enthusiastically willing to try anything they offer. Their infused olive oils are particularly good for me because I have some digestive system issues. I can get a pepper infused oil and make a fish spicy without the gastric distress. Same for citrus infused oils and more. I've also tried many vinegars from them. It's all be incredible. Great local place for buying gifts too. They give you your purchase wrapped in colorful paper and in a cute little bag. Definitely worth the trip!

Alfonsos's is a must! Added a bookcase in my house just for my stash! Staff so helpful and passionate about their products. A Tucson treasure.Love to buy the oils by seasonal harvests. Their Balsamics and olive oils will take your cooking to a whole new level. Also a fun excursion if you want a fun activity with friends!

Hi my name is Kristy and I am addicted to Alfonso's olive oils and balsamic vinegars. No joke I am missing maybe 2 of the balsamic vinegars and maybe 4 of the olive oils. My friends laugh when they see my pantry at home because the shelf is FILLED with balsamic vinegars and olive oils. The owners and employees are always friendly and helpful offering suggestions of what to pair/mix with what. Hence my addiction er... collection. Seriously though, the high quality of their products are amazing. I make all my own salad dressings and they are delicious not to mention healthy too. They make great gifts as they will wrap the bottles up in a gift bag . Save your bottles and bring them back! You get a punch card and after you return 10 bottles, you get one free.The store is very warm and inviting and also offers pasta, olives, olive oil dipping plates, etc. You can sample all of the oils and vinegars before purchasing so plan on spending some time in this store!

Nom nom, olive oil and balsamic vinegar...First Starbucks helped move America from Maxwell House and Folger's to something resembling how coffee really should taste - bold and fresh - and then local roasters and boutiques took it up another big notch. Lucky for us, olive oil is skipping the high-end chain approach (so far) and we can go straight from Bertolli's and other supermarket stuff to REALLY GREAT OLIVE OIL - fresh, infused or fused if you like flavors, and far beyond the super shelf in terms of flavor. It's not cheap, but it's not really that much more than the stuff from the store, and would you rather wash your hair with Aveda or Pantene? You will pay for quality, my culinary friend.Now let's cross to the other side of the gorgeous eggplant-and-green shop to taste the balsamic vinegars.Ha, you thought the oil was good! I couldn't choose between the cinnamon pear, white apricot, white pear, or Tahitian vanilla (yes! nom nom), so i got a sampler with all four - plus a wild mushroom and sage olive oil and the Italian herb olive oil. I figured that if I didn't drink them in the car on the way home, I could try them and see what I used most, and then go get more of that. Actually, that wasn't my idea, but the suggestion of other Yelp elites - the wonderful owners were hosting us for an event, which gave me the excuse I needed to finally get myself into this fine shop. They let us sample everything, and you can too. They also have suggested oil/balsamic flavor parings that will knock your olfactory socks off. I haven't even mentioned the walnut oil. Um.Get over to visit this gem NOW. You won't regret it. See you at the support group for addicts!
