What does Extra Virgin olive oil quality mean?

Quality means taste and health. Quality requires skill and attention in every detail at every moment. From cultivation to delivery. Here are some of the essential requirements, to get the best results:

1. The oil must be obtained from olives cultivated with natural methods, harvested at the right degree of ripeness directly from the tree; the varieties of olives, the soil, the climate, the weather ,all are key ingredients.
2. The pressing should occur in a timely manner to prevent the proliferation of bacteria and toxic substances that harm the flavor and nutritional properties;
3. The fruit must be mechanically pressed at low temperature with respect to the traditional methods; this is the requisite for obtaining Extra Virgin;
4. The mill where the olives are pressed must be equipped with state-of-the-art equipment to ensure hygienic conditions necessary for the integrity of the product;
5. Oil conservation until bottling and sale must meet very strict criteria: proper temperature,avoiding oxygen exposure, suitable materials;
6. Regular checkups are required for the maintenance of all culinary and nutritional characteristics of the oil. With Philippos Hellenic Goods there is all that. There is rigour and close attention at all times. All phases of the process of preparation and storage must point to the same direction: excellence. This is the added value of PHILIPPOS oils.
