ARTISANAL OLIVE OIL PRODUCTION [by Chukwubike]

This is the Olive harvesting period in most Mediterranean areas Production of Extra vergin olive oil in such little cold water press factories replace the old family hand press that esisted.The oil is almost 100% cholesterol free.
The cakes 'wastes' from these cold water press productions are sent to bigger factories who then press them again and with other agents extract the very ones in our supermarkets labeled 'extra virgin olive oil'
