We know there are many choices when it comes to purchasing extra virgin olive oil and we just hope that once you taste our yearly offering of IL DIVINO Extra Virgin olive Oil and understand all the steps we take to make it healthy and delicious, you will be a customer for life.

Your Trusted Source

When you see/buy Olive Oil labeled “Imported from Italy”, to be legally labeled “from Italy”, the Olive Oil only needs to contain 10% or less oil from Italy and the rest can be from anywhere including the USA, Africa or who knows where.

So it is the loose USA labeling regulations why many Americans and others have NEVER experienced the joy of tasting 100% Pure Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Italy.  This is why we started IL DIVINO – to be the absolute trusted source of 100% pure, fresh, Italian Extra Virgin olive Oil.

Freshness Makes Difference

In addition, due to the intrinsic delicate nature of the oil, you should always try to consume your olive oil within one year of purchase to experience the very best flavor and health qualities of the oil. Therefore, when purchasing Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil you should try to buy it and consume it within one year of the olive harvest date. If the olive oil you are considering does not have a harvest date on the container, don’t buy it!

Purity & Freshness Guaranteed

To ensure you receive the absolute freshest, highest quality olive oil possible, we only use special bottles produced in Italy to block harmful light from damaging your oil. The bottles also include a special pouring spout to minimize the introduction of harmful oxygen into your bottle when open. You WILL taste the difference.

Tips For Buying Olive Oil

If buying Extra Virgin Olive Oil (the best), make sure the label states 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Labels can state Extra Virgin Olive Oil and contain less than 10% actual extra virgin oil

If buying Olive Oil, make sure the label states 100% Olive Oil: Labels can state Olive Oil and contain more than 90% cheap vegetable or canola oil

If buying Italian Olive Oil, make sure the label states 100% Italian Olive Oil: Labels can state Italian Olive Oil and contain more than 90% oils from other places like Africa

Always try to avoid buying Olive Oil and Extra Virgin Olive Oil older than 1.5 years from olive harvest and sold in light glass bottles; dark colored glass or cans are best. Oil degrades rapidly with time due to light and oil oxidation and older oil is sold cheap and tastes bad.
