On each product page you will see a screenshot of our lab test results. We lab test our oils every new harvest.

Yes! A 2018 study in Acta Scientific Nutritional Health found that oxidative stability and low polyunsaturated fat content matter more than smoke point. In their study, EVOO produced the fewest harmful by-products when heated, outperforming oils like sunflower, rapeseed, corn and soybean oil.

Olive oil should be stored in a dark, cool place to preserve its quality and freshness. The optimal temperature range is between 14 ºC and 25 ºC. Extra virgin olive oil solidifies at a temperature of 7 ºC. Do not refrigerate or freeze your olive oil.

Yes it is! "First cold press" refers to mechanically pressing olives at temperatures under 27°C (80°F) during the first extraction, which preserves flavour, nutrients, and antioxidants. Modern high-quality extra virgin olive oil is already made this way by default. We take great care to press our olive oil at below 25°C for better results. It is also fresh (recent early harvest date), single origin (not blended), and lab-tested for quality and transparency.

Yes, Organic Gold and Classic Opus can be taken as a daily health shot.

The recommendation is for 2 tablespoons of total olive oil consumption per person per day (around 30 ml).

This lines up with the Mediterranean diet, where regular daily intake is incorporated in everyday food (ie. not in one-off shots), and is what drives it's health benefits.

The best thing to do is to swap out "bad" fats for good olive oil in your daily food.

All our olive oils are from the latest harvest for the ultimate freshness.

The harvest date refers to the month the olives were harvested from the groves. There's one harvest each year. In Greece, this takes place in Oct- Nov. Changes in the climate mean that year on year, the harvest date could change slightly.

We farm organically to the stringent EU standards without any synthetic or chemical "cides".

Our Opus Organic Gold is certified organic.
