Why do you purchase EVOO?
What is EVOO?
- Olive oil must meet two sets of requirements to be considered “extra virgin” in the US:
- Organoleptic (Taste) Standards:
- The oil must have “Fruity” (green or ripe) attributes and possess ZERO defects
- High quality extra virgin olive oils are “Bitter” and “Pungent”
- Defects include: Rancidity, Fusty, Muddy Sediment, Winey
- Chemical Standards (IOC):
(acidity)
EVOO vs. Virgin, Olive Oil, Pommace Oil…
- By definition, extra virgin olive oil is without flaws. Any
- il failing a organoleptic and/or chemical test is NOT
extra virgin, but is a
- Virgin Olive Oil
- Olive Oil
- Refined Olive Oil
- Pommace/Lampante Oil
Non-extra virgin oils LACK the health benefits you are looking for in extra virgin
- live oil!

Why is EVOO good for you? “The health benefits of olive oil are 99 percent related to the presence of the phenolic compounds, not the oil itself.”
- Nasir Malik, research plant physiologist at the U.S.
Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service
It’s all about the Polyphenols.
Polyphenols are powerful antioxidants that reduce cancer risk and heart disease, American’s number one killer.
Not all extra virgin olive oils are created equal – especially when it comes to Polyphenol content.
- Lucini has over TWICE the amount of Polyphenols as other extra virgin olive
- ils
- Why? Olives must be harvested from older, more mature trees in the
beginning of the harvest, when the olives are green, in order to capture the maximum amount of Polyphenols.
Not only are Polyphenols medicinal and GOOD for you, they protect the oil!
- High-quality extra virgin olive oils rich in Polyphenols are more shelf stable
and less effected by light and heat. So YES, you can use high-quality
extra virgin olive oil in high heat cooking applications!
