          What is extra virgin olive oil?

Of course, there is always talk of what is described as "extra virgin olive oil", the one that sells well abroad. However, in order to get such a label, an olive oil must be as it comes out of the mill, without processing and with an acidity of less than 0.8%. If the acidity is more than 0.8% but does not exceed 2% then it is simply characterized as "virgin" and more than 2% has the designation "industrial", which replaced the older "lamps", "coupe" and in the last stage the "Refined".

To be classified as unheated, an oil must have come out of the mill without its temperature exceeding 28 degrees Celsius. In several olive mills they raise the temperature even to 60 degrees to slightly increase the production, perhaps at the expense of quality. Because polyphenols above 28 degrees become more water soluble and leave with the water waste of the mill.

A very good olive oil must, in Mr. Franzolas's opinion, meet at least 4 of the following 6 criteria: 1. Acidity <0.3, 2. Peroxides <8, 3. Polyphenols> 200 mgr / Kgr, 4 On the tasting scale to get for Fruity> 3.0, 5. For Spicy> 2.0, 6. For Bitter> 2.0.
