Olive oil that’s first cold extracted maintains the most antioxidants and therefore it offers the greatest health benefits to you. First cold pressed – cold extraction. Many oils are marketed as first cold pressed or cold extraction. "Cold" refers to the fact that no heat is added during extraction. "Pressed" refers to the concept that the olives are crushed in a mill to extract the oil. In today’s world the word Cold Press is obsolete as it is not longer the method of choice which was used centuries ago.If there are no presses involved, why is extra-virgin olive oil still sometimes called "cold pressed"? Cold-pressed is a marketing term that has no regulated definition. According to the International Olive Council, all extra-virgin olive oils are extracted at temperatures under 27ºC (80.6ºF). So by definition all extra-virgin olive oils are "cold-pressed" or "cold extracted".Taste the difference and trace the history of single origin, single region, and ethically produced olive oil.
