The first great feature that distinguishes olive oil is that it is obtained from a blend of refined and virgin olive oils. Refined oil, the result of refining between lampante oil or virgin oil, is cut with extra virgin olive oil (in variable quantities) to obtain olive oil.
Extra virgin olive oil is obtained from olives through exclusively mechanical processes, which guarantee the unaltered maintenance of all the properties of the squeezed fruit. In summary, extra virgin olive oil respects strict parameters on chemical and physical analyzes of the product aimed at excluding defects and guaranteeing superior quality.
