Description:
This Australian Extra Virgin Olive Oil is cold-pressed from early harvest mostly green olives producing a more green coloured oil, it has a complex fruity, herbaceous aroma. An Olive Oil cold-pressed from mainly ripe (purple) olives on the other hand would produce a more golden coloured oil. Olive Oil is a fat obtained by cold pressing the fruit of the olive tree, native to the Mediterranean. The use of olive oil in skincare and cleansing goes back to ancient Greek and Roman cultures, where olive oil was used to clean off dirt and sweat by scraping the skin with a tool called a Strigil, before bathing in the hot baths. This Extra Virgin Olive Oil is 100% Australian, and 100% Pure.
