Grumpy Goats Farm Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Harvest 2019/20, low Acidity, Robust, 2020 NYIOOC Gold Award!, COOC Certified, CCOF Certified, California, Single Source (Coratina, 500)

The oil finally arrived and it is all they describe. Grassy and peppery, I love it! What I don’t love and hope the seller sees here is that their packaging is very poor. I ordered this oil and was notified that it would not be delivered due to the oil being damaged during shipping. I ordered a second bottle and yes I was quickly refunded for the first damaged order. The second bottle arrived and it was plain to see why the first bottle never made it here. The glass bottle was wrapped in maybe four layers of small bubble wrap and stuffed into a padded paper envelope. I found it surprising that the second bottle made it here without being broken. I’m a little reluctant to say that I will order this oil again because I believe the odds of another bottle of this very good oil making it safely here are very low. If you can’t take the time to pack the oil better, I might suggest you switch to a heavy food safe plastic bottle (yes, I prefer glass) that will likely be much more resistant to the rough treatment packages get during shipping.

In no way clichéd, this extra virgin olive oil by Grumpy Goats Farm indefatigably satisfies me, through five ways. First, this particular picual savors of almonds and walnuts, being both slightly rotund and slightly peppery. Second, once freed from its bottle, Grumpy Goats Farm's single varietal looks viridescent like ripe artichokes. Third, uncapped and under your nose, this organic extra virgin olive oil smells both of green bananas and of clipped grasses. Fourth, sturdily cushioned in shipping, each bottle of its current batch is made of dark glass to protect purity. Fifth, informing you about a freshness of its harvest between 2019 and 2020, its label states not only when these olives have been picked but also when these oils expire. À votre santé.

I'm accustomed to some of the best Mediterranean oils, but wanted to give a chance to our local producer. Not disappointed at all, but value for the money is just not there for me. It comes to almost $75/L which is on par with some of the best Tuscan oils, but I expected more. If you like it, go for it. It's a good oil.

High in polyphenols........good for health. Ordered two 500 ML bottles from The Olive Trading Co, with the order being fulfilled by Amazon warehouse. Amazon apparently goofed, because I received two smaller bottles (375ML). both Amazon and The Olive Trading Co were extremely responsive to my complaint-it was settled the same day I contacted them. Result: happy customer who will readily re-order next time.

Love this olive oil. It is from California and also Certified. California is the only place that certifies its olive oil so I trust that it is exactly as it is advertised.

Great olive oil and COCC seal is important with all the fake olive oils out there

A very strong oil with a strong sense of the Picual olive. Very complex taste with several different components appreciated. More complex than the same oil from the Olive Press.

I used this product for daily dose of EVOO, and for cooking. Great for both.
