All our products are sent in a durable transport box or gift box. In the case of 2.5 liter, 3 liter or 5 liter olive oils (in cans) we send them in an individual box.

Once the olives finish the filtration process to extract the olive oil in the molino, it begins to lose its properties. Even if well protected, the product is subject to radical changes in temperature, external odors and, above all, light. This is why the best way to store the oil is to put it in metal cans, bag-in-box containers and tinted glasses which, thanks to their opacity, prevent light from being too agressive.
What about the widespread PET plastic containers? They are affordable and lightweight, perfect for large quantities. However, they are the least protective.
There are many arguments for choosing organic olive oil. Here are some of the most important ones:

How to differentiate olive oil?
Premium olive oils are often labeled with certifications of origin or appellation. For example, an extra virgin olive oil certified as PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) is guaranteed to have been produced in a specific region according to strict standards.There are several types of olive oils, including extra virgin olive oil, virgin olive oil, refined olive oil, and regular olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the purest and most sought after, obtained from a first cold pressing.
From there, you can also expand with other products and have other choices. We will talk about variety, origin, PDO, organic, fruity, types of olives and olive trees, acidic or flavored taste, chili pepper, lemon, black truffle, etc.
Olive oils can vary in flavor, from fruity to tangy to bitter. Higher quality extra virgin olive oil generally has a more complex taste and richer aromas. There is a selection of very popular products such as truffle olive oil, smoked olive oil, or basil olive oil. Be careful to protect the oil from sudden changes in temperature. It is recommended to purchase products in bottles or cans to preserve the natural taste and aromas of the product.
Quality olive oils often display the harvest date on the packaging. Fresher oils tend to have a more intense flavor and better nutritional quality.
The olive tree harvest is done at the end of the year or the beginning of the year. As soon as the harvest is done and the vintage is filled, the preparation of the products begins.
Different regions produce olive oils with distinct taste characteristics. Mediterranean regions, such as Spain, Italy, and Greece, are known for their quality olive oils.
In France, we find quality oil in Provence or Corsica but these two AOP produce very little quantity for French consumption.
Be careful with products from the Maghreb, because even if we find very good olive trees and olive oils there, sometimes we do not know the mixtures made with different olives, which can harm the quality and taste and increase the acids. .
Quality olive oils are usually sold in tinted glass bottles or opaque containers to protect the oil from light and oxygen, which can alter its quality. Choose glass cans or bottles. Once purchased and brought home, it is best to keep it in the dark for as long as possible, especially if it is PET bottles, as they degrade very quickly.
High-quality extra virgin olive oils tend to be more expensive due to the more rigorous production and processing methods.
Olive oils from countries like Italy or France tend to be more expensive than those from Spain or Greece.
