How to Choose Authentic, Quality Olive Oil?
Choosing an olive oil may seem straightforward, but with the multitude of products available, it's essential to know how to distinguish superior quality oils from industrial products. Here are a few tips to guide you:
- Choose extra-virgin: This designation indicates that the oil has been cold-extracted, without the use of chemicals or heat, guaranteeing optimal quality. Extra-virgin oil retains all its nutritional benefits and offers an incomparable taste.
- Check the origin: Quality olive oil often comes from regions renowned for their expertise. Morocco, and in particular producers like Atlas Olive Oil, is famous for its exceptional olive oils.
- Read the certifications: Organic, ISO or other certifications guarantee that the oil has been produced in compliance with quality and sustainability standards.
- Look at the packaging: Dark glass bottles or metal containers are preferable, as they protect the oil from exposure to light, which can alter its flavor and benefits.
- Taste and smell the oil: A good olive oil should have a balanced, slightly fruity flavor, with bitter or spicy notes that indicate a high content of polyphenols, which are beneficial to health.
By applying these criteria, you can be sure of making an informed choice.
