LIQUID GOLD
Antakya Olive Oil
HEALING BURN
When you swallow a genuine early harvest Antakya olive oil, you should feel a slight cough and a peppery burning sensation in your throat. This bitterness comes from the "Oleocanthal" substance within it, which is beneficial for health. If the oil flows away like water, it has lost its essence.
SENSORY TRUTH
When you open the bottle, you should smell the aroma of freshly cut grass, unripe almonds, or tomato stems. This scent indicates that the olives were picked from the tree just before pressing.
COLOR TRAP
The easiest way to deceive a consumer is through their eyes. Don't be fooled by fake oils made bright green with chlorophyll dye. The color of quality olive oil can vary from golden yellow to emerald green depending on the harvest season. Close your eyes, but trust your nose and throat.
