[quote=Anonymous]I'm greek. We love our olive oil. But here's a secret: there is very little difference in "quality" as long as you are purchasing an extra-virgin, cold-pressed olive oil from a single source. Some types of olives yield a stronger tasting oil, or a darker green, or a more acidic oil, but these are personal preferences. We sometimes are able to purchase olive oil directly from a family with groves in Peloponnesus. It is wonderful. But so is the Spanish olive oil I have purchased from Costco. All of the California oils I have had have been delicious, with a beautiful golden color. The only thing I would avoid is the "multi-source" olive oils. These are typically labeled as coming from "italy, greece, morocco, lebanon, spain, turkey". They do not come from a single source, so you have no idea how long they have been sitting around in holding tanks being shipped around the Mediterranean before being mixed and bottled.[/quote]
