As established by the European Regulation on authorized health claims for foods, the main benefits of polyphenols in olive oil are that they contribute to the protection of lipids against oxidative damage.

Polyphenols are one of nature's most powerful antioxidants with a much greater effect than any antioxidant manufactured in a laboratory.

Regarding the preferential consumption of EVOO, it depends on whether it is filtered or unfiltered

In the case of filtered oil, it is usually two years from its packaging for consumption

In the case of unfiltered oil, this time is reduced to one year since, as it is not filtered, the suspended particles decant over time, forming "sludge" at the bottom of the bottle that they could ferment. with the action of light and oxygen.

These are periods of "preferential consumption", that is, the normal thing, after that time, is that the EVOO is in perfect condition and from that moment it could begin to degrade. That is why it does not have an expiration date.

Once the bottle is opened, it is recommended to consume it within 2 or 3 weeks or, in the case of a large format (5 liters), it is advisable to transfer part to a smaller opaque container (typical stainless steel oil cans).

Meanwhile, the opened jar should be kept in a cool place where it is not exposed to light.

Any variety of a good EVOO is enjoyed raw (toast, salads, direct pouring to enhance the flavor of other products, etc.).

Spain is a country rich in varieties, there are more than 50, so it will depend on your tastes if you opt for one or another variety.

The Picual variety is the one that tends to have a stronger, stronger and more spicy flavor.

The Hojiblanca and Picuda varieties usually have an almost perfect balance between itching and bitterness.

The Arbequina variety is the most soft in heat, but not for that reason full of flavors and nuances.

Defining the concept "intense" is complicated, since... intense in what? In nuances, in smells, in itching, in bitterness?

All high quality EVOO, like the ones you can find in Mi Oliva Gourmet, are intense in all their qualities organoleptic.

That is why the adjective "intense" should not be confused with part of these qualities, such as itching or bitterness.

The first thing you should know is that the better the EVOO, the better for frying, since at higher temperatures it will lose fewer beneficial properties. This goes against the false belief that a good EVOO is not good for frying, when it is the other way around. Bad oils lose their qualities quickly.

For this reason, large restaurants use excellent EVOO for frying and other quality restaurants use oils with a high oleic acid content.

Of our EVOOs, you can use any of them to fry in a pan, since the temperatures are not usually as high as in fryers.

In Mi Oliva Gourmet you will always find freshly packaged EVOO directly from Bodegas Almazara. We do not accumulate stock like large surfaces and operators.

In this way, you can enjoy the best EVOO throughout the year.

Although it is true that freshly made EVOO has a plus of flavors and nuances of freshly squeezed juice.

Depending on the variety, these freshly made oils come out little by little.

The first to come out, between October and November, is the Early Harvest Oil, an True "green gold" due to its low yield and high quality.

Then the arbequina and picual usually come out between November and early December.

And finally the Hojiblanca variety in mid-December

This is what Mi Oliva Gourmet EVOOs are like, which are harvested in optimal states of maturation.

The worst quality EVOO usually come out later, looking for a higher yield. of the olive to the detriment of its beneficial organoleptic properties.

First of all, they are authentic EVOO grown and cared for with love for the field and the product. They are Peasant Oils, with names and surnames, not mixed with other oils of any origin.

Secondly, they are freshly packaged EVOOs, while they are kept in optimal conditions in the Cellar. Oil mill.

And thirdly, they are all of extraordinary quality, with a degree of acidity of less than 0.2 (compared to the 0.8 required by the regulations) and with low yields, which translate into a high content of polyphenols

All this without forgetting the most important of all, its organoleptic qualities, that is, They are rich in nuances, smells, flavors and incredible sensations that will make you enjoy as our grandparents used to do, with an authentic and delicious product.

The olive grove is predominant in the Andalusian lands.

Nearly one and a half million hectares house the roots of this tree that characterizes the region and has converted it for thousands of years in the olive land par excellence.

Olive groves, with many centuries of life, are true witnesses of our history and our Andalusian cuisine.

Andalusia is the largest producing region in the world and the cradle of the Mediterranean diet, with Extra Virgin Olive Oil being the cornerstone on which this diet has been built, which has been declared Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

Surely you have tried to buy Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a large area, in a supermarket, etc., which was of good quality and at a good price.

In addition, you can find it difficult to know if an oil is of quality or not.

An early harvest oil is unique for its color, flavor and, above all, for its qualities.

First of all, it is an Extra Virgin Olive Oil, normally unfiltered, that is, A brief decantation process is carried out, which preserves suspended particles of the olive pulp itself and leaves that enrich its flavor.

Its flavor is strong and spicy, typical of olives in an early state of maturation.

It is also known as “green gold”, since it has a greener hue than the EVOO collected later, which has a more yellow or golden hue.

A Gourmet Oil has many characteristics that make it much better than the rest, but this time we will talk about the 3 differences between the Gourmet Oil and the rest of the Extra Virgin Olive Oils.

1. The time of the harvest, at an optimum ripening point that prioritizes quality over yield.

2. The selection of the Olive, even within the same olive grove, taking the ones with the best flavor and properties.

3. The grinding, packaging and conservation, which is even more important than all of the above when the EVOO is not bought freshly made.
