What does “Extra Virgin” really mean?Updated 2 months ago

“Extra Virgin” is the highest quality olive oil you can get. It means the oil:

  • Comes from the first cold press of fresh olives

  • Has no chemicals or heat used in the process

  • Has a super low acidity level (less than 0.8%)

Basically, it's pure, fresh, and full of flavor! Exactly what your kitchen deserves.

Most store-bought olive oils say they're extra virgin, but many don’t meet the real standard.
