Vilgain Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil - cold pressed oil, produced by a traditional family business in Greece
Vilgain Extra Virgin Olive Oil in organic quality is produced by a traditional family business in the Rethymno area of Crete. The highest quality olives are selected for harvesting, which are hand‑picked from the Koroneiki tree - the king of olive trees. In order to guarantee 100% quality, purity and freshness, we purchase the product directly from the manufacturer and do not use any commercial intermediates.
High content of healthy substances
For maximum preservation of healthy substances, olives are cold pressed into olive oil. Thanks to this method of processing, the oil has an approximately 100 times higher content of polyphenols compared to refined olive oil and approximately 10 times higher content compared to olive‑pomace oil.
Olive oil excels in the content of healthy unsaturated fatty acids, especially oleic acid. Replacing saturated fats in the diet with unsaturations helps maintain normal blood cholesterol levels. In addition, we find other bioactive substances in olive oil, such as squalene, phytosterols, vitamin E, or a number of beneficial polyphenols, including flavonoids.
The high proportion of olive oil in the Mediterranean diet is one of the theories as to why this type of diet has a low incidence of cardiovascular disease.
An ideal helper for cold kitchens
Olive oil handles heat treatment, but the beneficial substances are best stored in it when used in a cold kitchen. It has a strong fruity aroma with a typical olive flavour. For example, you can drip a vegetable salad or add it to your dressing or dressing.
