How It's Made

Extra Virgin is the highest grade of olive oil, available in both traditional and organic varieties. First, the olives are harvested and washed with cold water. They are ground into a paste and spun in a centrifuge to extract this high-quality oil. Typically, this process occurs within 24 hours of picking the olives from the trees.

EVOO is known as the “first, cold-press”, though it’s actually spun instead of pressed in modern systems. It is technically an olive fruit juice, because it’s simply the liquid extracted from the fruit of the olive.

To be considered Extra Virgin Olive Oil, the oil must have an acidity level lower than 0.8 and it must have zero taste flaws.  Delicious!

Every lot of Centra Foods olive oil also goes through a thorough quality and purity testing process — first overseas, and then again here in the US with a top olive oil lab. 

What It's Used For

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is used, first and foremost, as a raw finishing oil in home kitchens.  It's sold throughout the world in small retail bottles.  It's also used in home cooking recipes for sautéing and frying (yes, even frying!)

It's also used as a bulk ingredient.  It's used in the natural / healthy food industry as a part of manufactured products.  Extra Virgin Olive Oil is also used in "olive oil blends", which are specific ratio blends of canola, soybean, sunflower or other oils with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. 

Last, it's also used as an ingredient in body care products, as a topical ointment and even in soaps!

Bulk Packaging Options

35 Lb. Containers (also known in the oil industry as carboys) are a popular size for both the food service and manufacturing industries. For manufacturers with hands-on production or limited space, they are easy to store and handle manually. They are also a favorite in restaurant kitchens around the US, and can easily be stacked on a shelf, with the oil dispensed into a bottle using an attachable spigot.

These 55 gallon drums are one of the most common sizes used in the manufacturing industry. In a warehouse setting, they are reasonably small which makes them easy to move around and store.  However, you will need a pallet jack or fork lift to move them, because each is over 500 pounds.
