Frequently Asked Questions

A few things people ask

Why does it cost more than supermarket olive oil?

Because it is sold as a measured harvest, not an anonymous blend. A sample from batch A123 was tested as extra virgin in Italy and profiled for phenolics in Athens. You can read both reports on Our Proof. The price is for one named 5 litre pack, shown as £20.00 per litre (£2.00 per 100 ml).

What does the authorised health claim actually say?

Olive oil polyphenols contribute to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 20 g of olive oil. This batch provides 15.25 mg of hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol or their derivatives per 20 g. The threshold to use the claim is 5 mg.

Why does it taste bitter or peppery?

That catch in the throat is typical of oils rich in oleocanthal and oleacein. The official panel described this batch as medium fruity green, medium bitter and medium pungent, and well balanced. It is not a defect.

How should I take it?

20 g a day — about 1½ tablespoons — is the serving the claim is based on. Use it unheated: over food, in a dressing, or on its own. Keep the bottle cool and dark.

Is it Halal certified?

Yes. Heart of Gold – Olive Oil is listed on Universal Halal Authority certificate 24723, valid until 13 September 2027.

Which harvest is in the bottle?

The reports on this site are for harvest 2025/26, batch A123, Velagoshti from Kuçova, Berat. We replace the figures when the next harvest is tested.
