Tastefully Olive’s Extra Virgin Olive Oils are created for the health-conscious individual. We are a Family-Owned Company which produces 5th Generation Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Barrel Aged Dark and White Infused Balsamic Vinegar in small batches to ensure the superior quality. Our family of oils and vinegars are Award Winning, and our team has received over 408 International awards.
Our olives are harvested early, starting in October. We handpick the young green unripe fruit, place it in bins rather than bags to protect its quality, and extract the oil at a low temperature (often called “cold pressing”) less than 4 hours after picking. Our careful harvest and transportation, immediately followed by our unusually prompt oil production, make our extra virgin olive oil greener and higher in antioxidants, maximizing the high polyphenol content—so it offers more health benefits and flavor. We immediately store our olive oil in tanks at a constant 58 degrees Fahrenheit all year long prolongs its freshness and longer-shelf life.
This level of care enables us to maintain our high-quality standard as we produce our single estate, single source, single varietal Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). Tastefully Olive Extra Virgin Olive has an acidity level that is consistently 8x lower and peroxide values up to 10x lower than required by the standards for extra virgin olive oils. Not, to mention 8x-16x times more polyphenols (antioxidants) than the standard grade olive oil available in supermarkets. Meaning, our oils have more health benefits and longer shelf life, maintaining its fresh flavor longer.
We have our olive oil randomly tested multiple times a year and NOT only at time of harvest which is extremely inaccurate for consumers who depend on these high phenolic compounds all year round! High Phenolic or polyphenol-rich olive oils are recognized by the EU Health Claim Labeling Regulation 432-2012 stating that olive oil polyphenols contribute to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress. The health claim applies only to extra virgin olive oil with and minimum of 250mg/kg of polyphenols and is based on the daily consumption of 20g or 4tsp. The approved testing Method for the health claim is qNMR, which is the method we use! We pride ourselves in offering the healthiest flavored olive oils that exist in the market. All our Infused Oils are made from the Koroneiki Olives, Cold-Pressed Fruit, and Herbs. They contain over 580 MG/KG of Polyphenols.
