Cloudiness is completely natural and happens when olive oil is stored at cool temperatures. It does not affect the quality or flavour at all, and the oil will return to clear once it warms back to room temperature.
A quality extra virgin olive oil should taste fresh and fruity, often with notes of grass, herbs or green apple, followed by a gentle bitterness and a peppery kick at the back of the throat. That peppery finish is a sign of healthy polyphenol content.
For the best flavour, use your olive oil within a few months of opening. Keep the cap tightly closed and store it away from heat, light and air, the three things that cause olive oil to deteriorate fastest.
Yes, contrary to the old myth. Extra virgin olive oil is one of the most stable oils when heated thanks to its high antioxidant content, and its smoke point comfortably covers everyday frying and roasting temperatures.
Extra virgin olive oil is the highest grade, made purely by cold-pressing olives without heat or chemicals, which preserves its flavour, aroma and natural antioxidants. Regular or refined olive oil is processed further, giving a milder taste but fewer of the beneficial compounds found in extra virgin oils like Organic Semi Fresh Basil 18g.
