What is extra-virgin olive oil?
Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is the natural oil that is produced when quality olives that have been picked straight off the tree are processed, as soon as possible, without the use of chemicals or excessive heat.
The extra virgin olive oil that is produced in this manner is clean and healthful exactly as nature intended and not adulterated or added to in any way. The oil has not been treated other than through washing, centrifuging and filtering.
