certified extra virgin:
- The product must come from the initial pressing of fresh olives, usually within one day of their harvest.
- The free, fatty acid level must be lower than 0.8 percent.
- The oil must be extracted organically, meaning by no mechanical process, and a heat level of fewer than 28 C.
