High quality olive oil tastes much better than the cheapest oil (even within the EVOO category), which matters a lot for dipping. Flavors differ a lot by variety: there are buttery, olivey, “fresh” herbal-tasting, and peppery oils (that’s within the spectrum of unflavored oils, obviously flavored ones differ along more dimensions).
