Not all olive oils are created equal

Not all olive oils are created equal

Olive oil is a staple in many kitchens, prized for its health benefits and rich flavor. However, not all olive oils are created equal, and the Canadian market has seen its share of mislabeled or adulterated products. This makes choosing the right olive oil crucial for both health and culinary reasons.

The Issue of Falsification

In recent years, reports have surfaced about olive oils being diluted with cheaper oils or falsely labeled as extra virgin. According to l’Agence canadienne d'inspection des aliments (ACIA), olive oil tops the list of foods most subject to food fraud worldwide, reaching 39% of falsified olive oils in the Canadian market in the past 10 years. This not only deceives consumers but also deprives them of the benefits that authentic EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) offers. Such products often lack the purity and health advantages that true EVOO provides.

Why Choose 100% Authentic Sicilian Olive Oil?

Our Sicilian olive oil from the Noto region is a beacon of authenticity and quality. With the IGP (Indication Géographique Protégée) label, you can trust its origin and organic production methods. Unlike generic oils, every bottle of our oil is a testament to traditional Sicilian craftsmanship. Our EVOO is made from 3 olives typical of the region - Moresca, Verdese, and Biancolila, each bringing their own fruity, nutty, tangy, or herbal flavour and taste.

Health Benefits

Authentic EVOO is rich in antioxidants and polyphenols, which contribute to heart health, supports a healthy digestive system and promotes cognitive wellbeing. These benefits are often diminished in adulterated oils, making the choice of genuine olive oil even more critical.

An Ethical Choice

Choosing our olive oil not only enhances your culinary creations but also supports sustainable agriculture and local producers. By opting for authenticity, you invest in a product that values both your health and the environment.

In a market where quality can be compromised, our 100% authentic Sicilian olive oil stands out as a choice you can trust.

Elevate your dishes and well-being with every drop.
