The Ariston Difference
It is true: Olive Oils should be classified according to their acidity level. The less acidity, the higher the quality of the olive oil and its price. How can you tell if the olive oil is low in acidity? The taste of course. If the oil taste is smooth, fruity, no harsh after taste, then you know you have a high quality oil that?s low in acidity
Some companies assume that Americans do not know enough about olive oil, therefore, they will give them last year?s harvest, or the year before that, as long as it is blended with 25% - 30% fresh olive oil. Who would know the difference?
Another practice is how these companies will use olive oil with high acidity (that does not sell well in Europe) and sell that oil here as ?high quality extra virgin olive oil.? The practices allow companies to sell olive oil at a much lower price. The only thing they achieve with this is to give the producer a bad reputation. Olive oil is not supposed to taste rancid or heavy. Instead, olive oil should be pleasant to the senses, with a gentle fruity taste of the olive. Our Featured Product Program
The Ariston Refill & Save program is a method of buying premium olive oil at a very low price. When you first purchase Ariston Olive Oil from the Refill & Save program, you have an initial cost, which includes the olive oil and the bottle. The cost for the bottle will be paid only once since you bring it back to refill it with Ariston Select Extra Virgin Olive Oil or 12 year Balsamic vinegar. You save every time you refill your bottle. Imagine how much you save per year if you were to refill it 20 times!!
