    The problem is with the brands that mix sources. Italian brands do this the most. They get fake oil at a cheaper price from other places and then still sell it full price. Always buy one source like Partana which is scicilian. I’ve never seen a Spanish brand with mixed sources.

If you want the small bottle I get them at WalMart Ive tried the unfiltered and the regular cold press in the red label. That is the one I prefer. If youve never had real olive oil , get ready for a treat. Get a big loaf of french bread and dip it. You will love it. The black peppery taste on the back of your throat will let you know it is authentic. And it will make you cough. Ive seen two olive oil taste testers actually joking with one another about how many coughs they give each different brand. And FYI California Olive Ranch is real oil also. I use the red label of that one also . Bon appetit

    A robbery. The bottle must be at least gold plated. 35 dollars, the right price of an oil (real extra virgin) EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL is obtained as it is from the pressing of the olives. Its free acidity (expressed in grams of oleic acid per 100 grams of oil) does not exceed 0.8 grams per 100 grams (0.8%). Furthermore, in the Panel test (organoleptic examination) it is free from defects, with positive fruity notes. The oil trade is very profitable, there have been companies (and there will still be some) that buy cheap oil from Tunisia or sometimes from Greece, and pass it off as Italian. example: https: //www.youtube.com/watch? v = H8ry17y80b4

    EVOO (cold-pressed) is what we want. 6 Tips for Recognizing Real EVOO How do we know if our oil is the real thing and not part of the olive oil fraud? 1. Do not buy light olive oil or a blend; it isn’t virgin quality. 2. When EVOO costs less than $10 a liter it may not be authentic oil. 3. Real oils are sold in dark bottles, as this protects the oil from oxidation. Look for that. 4. Look for a seal from the International Olive Oil Council (IOC) 5. Look for a harvesting date on the label. 6. It can get old and rancid. A simple test for a good oil is to taste a little on a spoon. Not rancid, the real oil will have a fruity taste in the front of your mouth and a peppery taste in the back of your mouth. Then you know it is not a fake olive oil.

    Bits and pieces of info but not a true story, leaving many gaps to wonder about: What they did with the fly What they did with the bacteria What kinds of olive oils these Italian producers make after the EVOO, e.g. pomace oil, virgin oil, light oil The tester did not explain how a rancid oil smells or tastes !!! He just said it did He did not say where the oil he tasted as rancid came from, bec the viewer is led to believe it’s from one of the Italian producers the reporter interviewed (the young man and the lady) !!! Until they give this info, this video is not informative and confusing/misleading at best

    Vedete ancora oggi ho visto cospargere dei prodotti chimici sulle piante e non da piccole aziende o da privati, ma da aziende di un certo peso e non più Italiane ma straniere, e i prodotti chimici sono dannosissimi per la salute , molto meno di una larva. Poi mi parlate di olio di oliva menzionando la Tunisia, senza parlare di come viene coltivato, conservato e come questo in quale stato di igiene viene spedito e commercializzato. You can still see today I have seen chemical products sprinkled on plants and not by small companies or individuals, but by companies of a certain weight and no longer Italian but foreign, and chemicals are very harmful to health, much less than a larva. Then you talk to me about olive oil by mentioning Tunisia, without talking about how it is grown, stored and how this is in what state of hygiene it is shipped and marketed.

    Sorry, but you need to be properly informed, Italy is scamming you saying that the olive oil that they sell is made in Italy because is not, it's made in Spain. They buy excellent olive oil from Spain ( 60% of all the production of all the country) and mix it with low quality Italian olive oil, put a sticker on it and they sell it as excellent Italian olive oil. Spain is number one world producer at the world in quantity and quality, Italy can only dream to be the half of the half as good as Spain. but one thing is true they know how to lie to the consumers. They are doing the same as Asian countries do to the US honey producers. But misinformed consumers still thinking they are buying the best and know nothing about olive oil when they say Italian olive oil is the best, it is a plain and simple lie. You are welcome.
