In order to qualify as “extra virgin”, olive oil must be cold-pressed: the olives must be crushed using simple mechanical means, without the use of heat or solvents. Additionally, the oil must meet high standards of chemical analysis and pass the expert assessment of a tasting panel. Our selection of EVOOs (extra virgin olive oils) rotates constantly, as batches arrive from oil-producing countries around the world. Just as wines are often referred to by grape variety, so are olive oils named by olive variety. “Picual” olive oil, for instance, is made from Picual olives. EVOO flavour comes in a wide range of intensity, from the delicacy of mild oils (often recommended for salads) to the intense, peppery flavour of robust oils (which excel in marinating and cooking). Our medium oils strike a nice balance for general use. In our shop, we keep the chemical analysis of each EVOO on display. Between these numbers, and the world class reputation of our supplier—Veronica Foods—you can be confident that in our shop you’ll be purchasing genuine EVOO: the highest quality olive oil there is. Our flavour-infused olive oils begin as mild EVOO. All of our infused olive oils (including truffle!) and balsamics are all vegan, gluten-free and non-GMO.

Anti-inflammation: oleocanthal, a component of olive oil, is a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant.

Anti-oxidation: antioxidants in olive oil neutralize the cell-damaging molecules “free radicals”, which contribute to premature aging, hardening of arterial walls, and various illnesses.

Cholesterol: olive oil help reduce bad (low-density) cholesterol and raise good (high-density) cholesterol.

Insulin sensitivity: by increasing the sensitivity of cells to insulin, olive oil help the body use it more efficiently, leading to a lower concentration in the blood. This helps prevent a range of illnesses.

Digestion: the polyphenols in olive oil stimulate the activity of pepsin, a primary digestive enzyme, and enhance the absorption of amino acids.
