Featuring the oil of Lakelands Olives
Lakeland Olives organic olive oils... reflect the varietal characteristics and maturity of the olives used, resulting in distinctive and exciting flavors. They are best used as dressings and for delicate cooking.
Be innovative and explore the flavor of Lakelands oils on pasta, fish, in vegetable soups, salads, in marinades and with many other healthy and tasty dishes.
Free fatty acids (FFA) are an indicator of oil quality. FFA levels for Extra Virgin oils have to be below 0.8% according to international standards. Lakeland produces oils with FFA levels well below, thus providing oils of the highest quality.
Olive oil deteriorates with exposure to air and light. We recommend keeping it in an air-tight bottle or container protected from heat and light.
However, the best protection of its quality is to use and enjoy it generously!
