Extra virgin (EVOO) is the purest, unprocessed olive oil. The oil is obtained by the first cold pressing using entirely mechanical means, without heating or chemical treatment. This way, flavor, aroma, and nutrients are preserved to the fullest.

True EVOO meets strict quality criteria, including a low acidity (max. 0.8%). Our oil measures 0.33% acidity and fully complies with EU organic regulations.

Unfortunately, many olive oils in the supermarket are blends or partly refined, so they may be called “virgin” or “mild,” but do not deserve the extra virgin label. Our EVOO does:

• 100% cold pressed
• No mixing with refined oil
• Originates from Mediterranean olives within the EU
• Fully complies with European organic regulations

1. What is really inside?
The label says ‘olive oil’, but often it is a blend of refined oil, diluted with a small percentage of extra virgin. How much exactly? The maker does not have to say. Moreover, it is regularly mixed with oil from countries outside the EU, even though ‘EU/non-EU’ is printed in small letters on the label.

2. Taste and nourishment lost
To still process unusable olives, the oil is industrially refined: heated, deodorized, and bleached. What remains is a fat without taste, antioxidants, or healthy fatty acids. Only by adding a little real oil afterwards may it still be sold as ‘olive oil’ in the shop.

3. Low quality as base
For this process, olives are often used that are overripe, damaged, or even already fermented – olives that would be unfit for extra virgin olive oil. Yet they end up in large volumes of supermarket oil.
