Olive oil is widely recognised as one of the world’s healthiest oils. In fact, people tend to live longer and healthier lives in regions where olive oil is a staple part of the diet. Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is the highest quality olive oil available, extracted from the olive fruit without the use of any heat or chemicals.
EVOO GRADING REQUIREMENTS
In order for an olive oil to be graded as EVOO, it must meet the following requirements:
The oil is completely natural and unadulterated, with no additives, preservatives, colouring or flavouring added.
The oil is free of any defects – not rancid, winey, musty, fusty etc.
The oil has a measure of fruitiness
The oil has harmony & balance
The oil has gone through a chemical analysis
Extra Virgin Olive Oil is accepted as being the best quality oil available and as such demands the highest retail price. For a premium price, the consumer should be guaranteed a product of commensurate quality.
