Looking Back to Move Forward

To truly understand the differences between high-polyphenol olive oil and regular olive oil, it's worth taking a step back. Olive oil used to be rich in polyphenols, which not only gave it its characteristic flavor but were also responsible for its health benefits. This tradition is not lost - it's just waiting for us to rediscover it.

The essence of a good olive oil

An excellent olive oil is characterized by several factors:

  • Rich in polyphenols: Polyphenols are antioxidant plant substances that promote our health. A high content of these substances is an indicator of quality and health benefits.

  • Early harvest: Olives that are harvested early contain more polyphenols. This makes the oil more intense and rich in nutrients.
    Purely mechanical

  • Processing: Without heat or chemicals, this method preserves the natural properties of the olives.

  • Clear origin: Regions with traditional cultivation and optimal conditions, such as certain areas in Greece, deliver outstanding quality.

  • Correct storage: Storage in the absence of oxygen and at low temperatures preserves the quality and freshness of the oil over a longer period of time.

  • Freshness: A current harvest and bottling date ensures taste and effectiveness.

Modern tips inspired by traditional values

Modern tips inspired by traditional values

  • Look for polyphenol content Look for oils that list their polyphenol content. A value of 200 mg/kg or more is considered high. Oils like O'Liv PLUS with at least 750 mg/kg are top-notch and offer maximum health benefits.

  • Prefer early harvested olives. These oils often have a stronger, slightly bitter taste – a sign of quality and high nutritional content.

  • Rely on mechanical processing Avoid oils that have been heat-treated or chemically extracted. Oils extracted purely mechanically retain the full aroma and nutrients.

  • Find out about the origin Choose oils that provide transparent information about their origin. Regions with traditional olive cultivation often stand for better quality.

  • Check the harvest and bottling date Fresh olive oil offers a more intense flavor experience and more health benefits.

  • Support sustainable practices Organic quality and environmentally friendly harvesting methods not only protect nature but often also the quality of the oil.
