Why is my oil cloudy?Updated 2 months ago

Great question! Cloudiness in olive oil is totally natural and nothing to worry about. In fact, that little bit of sediment or cloudiness you see often means you’re getting the good stuff! Extra fresh, extra virgin, and packed with nutrients. That’s the sign of an unfiltered or minimally processed oil, which still contains healthy plant solids full of flavor and antioxidants.

Also, if your oil arrived looking a bit cloudy or thick, especially in colder months, it's likely due to chilly shipping temps. Just like when you refrigerate olive oil, it can solidify or appear cloudy when it's cold. Once it warms up to room temperature, it’ll return to its normal state. Safe to use and still totally delicious.

So go ahead, drizzle away! Cloudy oil = fresh, flavorful, and fabulous.
