EXTREMELY GOOD PRODUCT

The oil is good! But we received a broken bottle! And it's impossible to replace or return it! We paid a pretty penny for this oil, and they delivered a broken bottle that's impossible to return! What do we mean by this?

I was looking for a better quality EVOO but I didn't want to spend a huge amount of olive oil. I consume a lot of EVOO and I primarily care about high polyphenol content and price. I did a bunch of research, but I am no olive oil expert. This is what I think: This oil originates from Morocco. Information on polyphenol content isn't available for all brands but I was able to find some numbers of Atlas. I assume it varies, based on olive harvest each year, etc. Either way, I can't test anything myself in a lab but it sounds like Atlas is known to contain high levels of polyphenols. There are certainly brands that have higher levels of polyphenols for people looking for extreme levels but this is considered high by most standards. (Not an expert opinion but based on internet research I have done) The price and packaging are additional items that drew me to this brand. It is a full liter where the wine bottle size, more expensive oils come in .75 liter bottles. The internet suggests finding EVOO with a pressed date on the back. There is a pressed date on EVOO. The bottles that I have purchased from Amazon arrive to me about 3-5 months after the pressed date. You can pay for oils flown over instead of travelling on a ship but it should be good for 12-18 months minimum from the pressed date. If the most premium, most expensive oil is what you are after, this is not it. If you want high polyphenol content, oil with a pressed date, relatively recently harvested oil, good packaging and a good price, is this the best I found. EVOO doesn't expire but the polyphenol content does slowly degrade I guess. I go through it quickly so I don't worry about it. I would rather receive bottles that are harvested less than 3 months ago but I'm not willing to pay for it personally. The oil does have a peppery taste and you do feel it in your throat if you take a tablespoon of it. (which is good and indicates high polyphenol content) It tastes good in my opinion but I don't know if I have tried oils that don't taste good. I also not have a strong preference for a specific taste. I prefer good quality, recently pressed, well packaged oil for a good price. I would recommend shaking it each time you use it.

Ich bin von diesem Olivenöl wirklich positiv überrascht. Es ist sehr mild, weich und angenehm im Geschmack. Wer bei nativem Olivenöl extra oft diesen bitteren oder scharfen Nachgeschmack nicht mag, könnte mit diesem Öl sehr zufrieden sein. Geschmacklich unterscheidet es sich für mich deutlich von vielen anderen Olivenölen, die ich bisher probiert habe. Es wirkt sehr sanft, fast neutral, aber trotzdem hochwertig. Gerade für Salate, kalte Speisen oder auch pur mit etwas Zitrone finde ich es sehr passend, weil es den Geschmack der Speisen nicht zu stark überdeckt. Man merkt, dass es kein einfaches Standard-Olivenöl ist. Für mich gehört es geschmacklich zu den besseren Olivenölen, die ich bisher hatte. Besonders gut gefällt mir, dass es nicht unangenehm bitter ist und sich sehr angenehm verwenden lässt. Der einzige klare Kritikpunkt ist der Preis. Das Öl ist wirklich teuer, vor allem wenn man es mit günstigeren Alternativen vergleicht. Es gibt definitiv Olivenöle, die zwei- bis dreimal günstiger sind. Deshalb würde ich sagen: Wer sehr stark auf den Preis achten muss, findet sicher günstigere Optionen. Wer aber ein besonders mildes, hochwertiges und angenehm schmeckendes Olivenöl sucht, bekommt hier ein sehr gutes Produkt. Meine Bewertung bezieht sich vor allem auf die Qualität des Öls selbst. Würde ich nur den Preis bewerten, wäre ich kritischer. Da mich Geschmack, Milde und Qualität aber klar überzeugt haben, gebe ich trotzdem 5 von 5 Sternen. Fazit: Ein sehr hochwertiges, mildes und angenehmes Olivenöl, besonders für Salate und kalte Speisen. Preislich nicht für jeden Alltag geeignet, aber qualitativ aus meiner Sicht absolut überzeugend.

Ein sehr gutes Produkt und schnelle Lieferung 👍

You can smell and taste the difference in this fine extra virgin olive oil. I just received this a couple of days ago, and the same night I made a large batch of crostini (with baked fresh baguette slices) for several different bruschetta spreads I had laid out. I generously brushed the slices with olive oil before baking, and they turned out perfectly crispy and delicious. I shared them with my 4 housemates, and they all loved them. However, I actually bought this brand of olive oil to use daily for its health benefits. I drank my first teaspoon today, but will probably graduate to about 1-2 tablespoons. I never thought I'd "drink" olive oil, but it wasn't bad at all, and after reading a lot on the subject, I thought I needed to give it a try. This is a premium olive oil from Morocco that's cold-pressed and rich in polyphenols. Polyphenols offer significant health benefits by reducing chronic inflammation, improving blood pressure and cholesterol, enhancing insulin sensitivity, and protecting against cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and certain cancers. However, not all olive oils are equal. In fact, I read that there are a lot of fraudulent olive oils out there that are mislabeled as extra-virgin even when they're not. A 2010 study conducted by the University of California–Davis Olive Center tested supermarket samples of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and concluded that more than 69% of olive oil labeled “extra virgin” did not meet the legal standard. Who wants fake (heat-treated or refined) olive oil when you can have the real deal? Now, other polyphenol-rich olive oils, including the one promoted by Dr. Gundy, can be VERY EXPENSIVE. Gundry MD Olive Oil is also produced with Moroccan olives and is rich in polyphenols; however, it's 3 times more expensive than this brand. Atlas Olive Oil, I believe, is comparable in quality, and the price is polished. If you want a superior quality olive oil at an affordable price, this is the one!

Taking this orally for medicinal purposes, a smoother taste and upgrade on my previous brand. Higher in polyphenols.
