How Do I Store My Cold Extracted Organic Olive Oil?
Olive Oil is packaged in dark glass bottles to prevent damage from direct sunlight and heat. When olive oil is exposed to sunlight, it causes photo-oxydation, which degrades the nutritional quality of the oil. As a result, it is recommended to store olive oil in a cool dark place to keep it in the best condition for you to enjoy it.
