EVOO
How to choose a good extra virgin olive oil?
When buying EVOO, it is not enough to follow recommendations. It is important to read the labels to check the origin, variety and harvest year. These factors ensure that you are buying fresh and high-quality oil.
Why is the origin of olive oil important?
Origin is key to avoiding fraud. Sometimes oils are sold that are not 100% olive oil or are mixed with lower-quality oils. Always make sure the EVOO comes from a reliable source.
Is it advisable to buy olive oil from previous harvests?
Avoid buying EVOO in plastic bottles or clear glass, as light negatively affects the oil. Ideally, it should be sold in opaque bottles, which protect its freshness and flavour.
How should I store extra virgin olive oil?
No. Always look for EVOO from the current harvest (usually around November). Olive oil loses quality over time, so it is essential that it is fresh to enjoy all its organoleptic properties.
How do I know if an EVOO is of good quality?
A good EVOO should be pleasant on the palate, with fresh aromas and a slight bitterness and spiciness. These are indicators that the oil is fresh and of good quality. If you notice a rancid taste, it is best to discard it.
Where to buy extra virgin olive oil?
To ensure you get the best quality extra virgin olive oil, it is advisable to avoid large supermarkets and opt for gourmet shops or specialised online stores, such as Aceitedelcampo.com, where detailed and extensive information about each EVOO is provided.
What is the price of extra virgin olive oil?
In recent years, the price of olive oil has risen significantly due to poor harvests caused by climate change. Extreme temperatures and lack of rain have negatively affected production, doubling prices in less than two years.
What is the best extra virgin olive oil?
Despite this situation, new water conservation techniques are being implemented in crops, and it is expected that future harvests will improve. Currently, the price of a 500 ml bottle of good EVOO should not be below 15 euros. If the price is considerably lower, it is worth questioning its quality. There are many excellent extra virgin olive oils available starting from the price range mentioned above, most of which are of Spanish origin. However, they are not always easy to find in physical stores, as olive oil has historically been seen as a cheap product, limiting its high-quality offering in the local market.
Today, this perception is changing, and thanks to specialised stores like ours, these prized juices are starting to be sold more in the domestic market. Some of the most internationally awarded oils include:
