EVOO stands for Extra Virgin Olive Oil, the highest grade of olive oil. A special process involving the first cold pressing of pure, unaltered olives without additives and at temperatures not exceeding 27°C (80°F) makes olive oil extra virgin. It must be free of defects with an acidity below 0.8%. EVOO retains more vitamins and antioxidants due to minimal processing.
