@@user-td2fq8fs1h I recommend that you first go to an oil mill and taste some freshly made extra virgin olive oil. You will find it COMPLETELY different from anything you have tasted so far. Now that you know the TRUE flavor of olive oil, search the store for the one that comes closest to it. Out of 20 brands maybe you will find 1 that comes close (maybe). That's the one to buy. Alternatively, buy it directly at the oil mill, but consider that it will cost you at least double. ps. forget Carapelli and Bertolli, they are crap.
My understanding of the term "Cold pressed" is it doesn't mean it is pressed when the olives are cold. It means no heat is used in the extraction process and no chemical process is used.
Yes! it is the first pressing of the olives. Where the term Virgin comes from.Heat would kill the good stuff.Then it turns into olive oil,and when the use solvents its Pomace olive oil,IMO this oil needs to be avoided!!!
I am a California Ranch buyer and i like it .I have had Bertolli and i thought it was bitter tasting .Iv'e never had the Lucini but i'm going to try it .
The thing I go by is the peppery burn in the back of the throat. Olive oil has an antioxidant in it that burns your throat. If I don't get that, I assume it's fake or old. I like a strong olive oil flavor, but there are some authentic varieties from some regions that are more mild in taste, but they should also have that throat burn sensation.
More importantly is whether they’re single estate oils. Are they coming from several different countries. That’s what we should be looking for. Thanks for sharing
The California Ranch Everyday is a blend yet it was Consumer Labs’ top pick. They tested numerous aspects, including polyphenol content, taste, and price.
A 92 year old friend of my mine born and raised in Italy and whose family made their own Olive oil. She said it is the utmost importance for taste that the oil is derived from ripe black olives. Most in US are processed from green unripe olives which gives a bitter aftertaste.
What a wonderful life making what you need to live from.what God has given in abundance. What region of Italy did your dear friend come from? I'm Scandinavian and Dutch learning to cook the fantastic cuisine of Italy. Italian cooking seems to be extremely regional with lots of variations. Good thing I'm a life long learner.
I use California 100% medium extra-virgin olive oil it’ll have a sticker on it that says 100% on the front. There is a doctor whose name is Mandel who recommends this extra-virgin olive oil he says it’s one of the best ones because it’s made at one place it’s not. A Global blend. In other words, it doesn’t come from three or four different countries first cold press.
I use the California Olive Ranch one because it has the cheapest price tag and it’s real extra virgin olive oil. It’s also easy to obtain for me. Unfortunately I moved recently and the Walmart I’m by now is a smaller one and doesn’t carry the brand, but the Winco right beside it does which is nice but it only comes in the 16 oz size. The Walmart I used to live by actually had the biggest sized one which was cheaper per oz.
I stopped buying California Olive Ranch EVOO. they starting to play the same game as others and using blends from other countries. they tricked me once, never again. pay attention to the small print on the bottle. it will say "Global Blend". look on the back and it will show many countries of origin. i do not trust this brand anymore.
Here in Germany, Bertolli is 2,99€ on sale and 3,99€ regular. It’s considered crap. We buy Greek olive oil like Terra Creta in tin cans (~6€) or real Italian evoo like Frantoio Cutrera (~22-23€). I prefer the Greek nowadays, since you get better value for price. The oil is green not yellow and it tastes like fresh cut grass and Mediterranean. Best Allan
I have been taking 2 TBSP EVOO daily and I use the California Ranch. I like the peppery taste, but it varies by bottle. I haven’t seen the Lucini at Smiths. I will look for it. And, it has to be in a dark glass bottle or a can. No plastic on my EVOO.
I was looking for reviews on the California and came across this video. You might be "just some dude" but it was a great comparison and I enjoyed it. Thanks!
@@terryglendening7166 Plastic bottles don't do anything plus they are BPA FREE the only thing tHAT you should never put on plastic bottles are like ACIDS like vinegars or anytype of acids. but Plastic battles are okay for olive oils they are okay if they are bpa free im no saying that plastic is good actually i agree plastic is bad 1000000% if you don't like the plastic bottles. do it like i do i just pour the olive oil that comes in the plastic bottle to a GLASS bottle. i had notice if you buy always glass bottle you are paying just more for that glass bottle but what it is inside of that glass bottle or plastic bottle is the same is the SAME OIL just in one is glass and on the other is plastic.

@@terryglendening7166 I’ve bought the same Bertolli olive oil abroad in a glass bottle. You cannot find the glass version here in America; it only comes in plastic…oh, our love for the environment.
God bless ❤ .. how do you think about the organic olive oil? I mean I read olives oil from EU more safe because lowest in pesticide but how about chemical? Thankyou .. all the best ❤
Lucini was tested chemically and by a pro taster:.: it was one of 3 approved. The other 2 are global and 100 percent California by California Olive Ranch
I really like the Lucini Argentina produced olive oil. It is superior to others that are available here. I use it for both cooking and dipping. I look at the label for the year and vintage when pressed. I don't want blends when it comes to consistency and flavor. Lucini is my choice.
Maybe can make another test based on the 3 types of olive oil in this video in the fridge for 2 or 3 days and if the oil is frozen/ solidified that means maybe not pure.
Thanks. Great to know more about olive oil. I like the best stuff because its expensieve and important for the health. Bertoli can stay on the shelf for me. 😅 info was very usefull 😮😮
I’ve had the Lucini, it’s great. I always find it funny that people say the Costco Kirkland is great, but I’ve watched multiple videos that also rank it highly.
Try the California Olive Ranch that's 100% from California, and not from multiple sources. Plus, if you can find it, get the robust version. For my taste, COR is the best.
@@fallback8314 COR is California Olive Ranch. But since I wrote that, I've been on the hunt for even better olive oil. Try Zoe for an oil that actually tastes like olives and is terrific for dipping bread. Also, Cobram Estate for drizzling over your plated meal.
California Ranch is super bland in my opinion. I think it's changed. I spent a lot of time looking up taste tests and it was often at the top, but it is DEFINITELY not nearly as good as even just a pretty cheap Trader Joe's brand. I ended up with Pompeian Robust and am finally happy. Strongly recommend it for people who like olive oil that tastes like olive oil! If you are looking for a bland, neutral olive oil (in which case I don't know why you are buying EVOO in the first place, but whatever) then California Ranch is the one to get.
I bought a store brand today, and it was shelf-recommended "top quality". I cooked with it, it is ok, not bitter, kind of bland though. Kirkland is similarly packaged.
For one , extra virgin should be green in color and should have a grassy peppery taste and smell!most italian olive oils have mix in them ! They are mob controlled in Italy. I never buy italian olive oil ! Greek olive oil is the best!
Greek olive oil and Spanish olive oils are the best. Costco had the Spanish variety but I'm looking to find authentic Greek extra virgin olive oil of a single olive variety. I used to use "oilady" here in New York but I can't find it anymore nor at their website... the site is defunct.
Are you saying the Lucini brand uses olive oil from Argentina? Why would they not just use local olive oil, which is plenty all over the country? The saving justifies the shipping time and cost?
Okay this is the only thing you need to know about olive oils... (1) The Olive must be pressed within 3 days of harvest. (2) On the Label only one country listed. (3) Must say on Label : 100% Extra Virgin Oil Cold pressed. (4)It's in a glass bottle. (5) Must have a price of more than $20.00 per 16/18 ounces. FINALLY MOST IMPORTANT when you get home pour I Small amount into a clear plastic or glass cup put in frezzer for 1 hour if it is cloudy at all an doesn't look the same as you put It into the frezzer , You got SCAMED.
Depending on where you go some places only have the Destination brand on hand. I went yesterday to the store and they only carried the destination so that is probably why he got it as that is probably all they carried.
@@jmdennis1967 is the destination and global the same thing I saw it on Wal-Mart online as I'm an international buyer I can't go in myself...thanks much
Try La Panza Its from California USA, it comes to your door, I love the OUTLAW blend, it has a harvest date, Its peppery, green and I'll never go back to store bought. Also it comes in a pouch, No air, no light gets in when you use some, I drink it every day,,, Not kidding ,you'll never co back to other O-Oil
Is there a website that you can order from? Sounds like you know what you are doing. Oil should be green and have a peppery and fruity taste. I don't want to waste my time and money using the wrong oil.
Glad to know it was not my imagination about Bertolli. I bought the same one shown in the video a few weeks ago, because it was on sale. I usually buy Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Robust, and am very happy with it, but try other brands when they're on sale. Bertolli is the weirdest olive oil I've ever tried. Although it says "rich," it has absolutely no flavor, unlike Pompeian Robust which has a really nice flavor and leave my food tasting moist. The food soaks up Bertolli, but it still taste dry and flavorless. I've tried many brands of olive oil, but this one is way different. I would never buy it again.
I don't remember why I tried Pompeian, but I think it was bc of comments like yours. I had been looking for ages for a good affordable and strongly flavored olive oil. I totally agree now that the Pompeian Robust is the bomb!
@@deprofundis3293 I agree that Pompeian Robust is da bomb. I just bought another bottle yesterday; I go through it like water. I find that it cost a little less at Walmart than many other stores. I only buy it at established reputable stores, not on Amazon, since I don't know if I'm getting the genuine product, or if it's past its date of use.
One doctor on here said if you put in in the fridge and it comes out cloudy and thick it's supposed to be real olive oil or not. Anyone verify or confirm this?
It maybe true before, but I've heard that big producers have gotten smart and manipulated their products just enough to have the same reaction in the fridge. So, we are back to square one on that. I'd just check the "Harvest Date" on the back of the bottle. It should be as fresh as possible. Also, check to see if the oil is sourced from various countries. If so, it won't be as good. Single estate with harvest date are now my criteria, plus the certification being a bonus.
If you will go to Dr. Mandel‘s UA-cam channel and typing in extra-virgin olive oil, he will tell you this is one of the best wines, the California brand medium 100% because It doesn’t come from several different countries it’s made in one place. Thank you.
10:14 Summary by rank: 1) Lucini 2) California Olive Ranch 3) Bertolli 09:57 The taste of Bertolli is noticably inferior compared with the other two. However, there is almost no difference between the taste of Lucini and California Olive Ranch.
It burns and smokes far to early to use. If you buy Extra Light Olive oil it is processed for higher Temps. I sometimes mix it with extra virgin when I need high temp stability.
Omg this dude took FOREVERRR to get to what was the best one hell everybody on UA-cam When it comes to olive oil speak extremely slow they could just tell us the top three cheap brands that are real olive oil but nooooo
Most olive oil in the US is adulterated with poor quality as a mix of oils from various sources and of unknown quality / freshness .. They even contain oil that is not olive oil
Honestly, they are all good for you! I mean if you want the best taste then go for the expensive, but, if you need to eat healthier and need cholesterol down... it doesn't matter what brand unl;ess your going to a dollar tree! I then would question the olive oil if it were a dollar lol But other than that Olive Oil is Olive oil unless you're trying to go for the taste.
I'll save you 11 minutes. Just buy Pompeian Robust. It's WAY better than the ones they tested here. California Ranch went downhill and is super bland now. I was looking for a tasty, flavorful EVOO for ages and am finally happy with Pompeian.
The area I live in, the northern part of the San Fernando Valley, in SoCal was an olive grove starting late 1800's. I have 2 trees which are over 120 years old in my yard. They produce olives every year although their size are small. I'm trying to see if I can learn to make olive oil and not throw them away this year. Greetings!
In my humble opinion I think to make things “fair” and “unbiased” you should use a blindfolded person and don’t say which is which before they try them.
California Ranch and LUcini are same company ... american people dont like SUPER bitter taste, so they made it less bitter .. if u want a REAL super BITTER TASTE 100% olive, go with Lucini ornganic premium select....
Jeez....if "light" and "poppy" are the most descriptive (and only) terms you can assign to your taste tests, why waste our time with your review? Jeez.
@@deprofundis3293 I've always like the reviews America's Test Kitchen puts out and they have one on EVOO. I don't like to spend a ton of money on anything but still like to get the best within my price range. California Olive Ranch EVOO is still the best in its price range I think, and Bertolli is good too.
U couldn’t be more wrong. Out of these three Bertolli is the worst. It’s blended oil. Lucini is the real deal with olive harvest date and pure evoo, not blended.
Here in Italy Bertolli is considered an *excellent lubricant* for hinges, metal drawers, locks and the like.
Food use not recommended.😁

Nice honest straight up review using 3 of the best criteria in my opinion. 1. What is on the label. 2. Price. 3. How it tastes. Thanks!
I paid $20.00 for a large glass dark bottle of the California Ranch Olive Oil & I’m very very satisfied 😋 with it. I highly recommend it.
Yep best one so far. I’m a month in now. Is great but I will I’ll be looking for others but haven’t found one that beats this one. 😋
Harvest date is the date the olives were/are matured an ready to be made into olive oil. Harvest date:
2019-2020 & Best by 12/2022

California Ranch offers several different varieties, including single estate and blended.
The California Ranch Everyday is a blend yet it was Consumer Labs’ top pick. They tested numerous aspects, including polyphenol content, taste, and price.

✳️ I use California olive oil.!✳️
You should have gotten the better California version. Has certification and harvest dates
is it bad for you to use olive oil at high heat when cooking
It burns and smokes far to early to use. If you buy Extra Light Olive oil it is processed for higher Temps. I sometimes mix it with extra virgin when I need high temp stability.
No
@@aymanm4350 thanks
Dr gundry says no
Yes it loses all its good qualities but technically no oil is good for cooking lol
Someone put the Burtolli label over the label on a single malt whisky and it gave the bread the best tasting ever.
i never test lucini or california but bertolli is the best in canada
The Bertolli has the dates on the back. you know what you're getting ,, you skipped that whole part! Taste tests do not equal quality !
The other two also have the dates in the back most likely all are around the same date they got harvested on and should expire
Omg this dude took FOREVERRR to get to what was the best one hell everybody on UA-cam When it comes to olive oil speak extremely slow they could just tell us the top three cheap brands that are real olive oil but nooooo
Wasting time..since we can't tell neither smell nor taste during viewing...just give the results
That sht looks like the battle pass
The prices of these have almost tripled in 2 years. That damn transitory inflation!
I kn the California is better but they isn't bad for you from what I read it's not fake. At least that's not what I'm reading about.
Thank you that t is not cheep👍🏻

Most olive oil in the US is adulterated with poor quality as a mix of oils from various sources and of unknown quality / freshness .. They even contain oil that is not olive oil
What brand should I buy then?
I’m not buying that California anymore. My favorite is Lucini.
Best bang for the buck is the California Olive Ranch
Yep Kirklands Best. But California 100% organic 💋never had Lucini
Bertolli's is great. I use it for cooking many dishes and it serves as great lubricant for my Fleshlight. 😏
👌👌👌
Luchini where i live is 30$🙄
That looks like the battle pass
Honestly, they are all good for you! I mean if you want the best taste then go for the expensive, but, if you need to eat healthier and need cholesterol down... it doesn't matter what brand unl;ess your going to a dollar tree! I then would question the olive oil if it were a dollar lol But other than that Olive Oil is Olive oil unless you're trying to go for the taste.
5’ll get you 10 that the Cali was fresher. If an olive oil is past 12 months from harvest dat, take a pass.
I'll save you 11 minutes. Just buy Pompeian Robust. It's WAY better than the ones they tested here. California Ranch went downhill and is super bland now. I was looking for a tasty, flavorful EVOO for ages and am finally happy with Pompeian.
(But their balsamic vinegar sucks)
Since when California grow olive ??
The area I live in, the northern part of the San Fernando Valley, in SoCal was an olive grove starting late 1800's. I have 2 trees which are over 120 years old in my yard. They produce olives every year although their size are small. I'm trying to see if I can learn to make olive oil and not throw them away this year. Greetings!
@@olgalydia73 Try learning how to use the leaves for making olive leaf extract. Powerful supplement.
@@sharonedwards126 thank you. Will deff look into that😊
@@olgalydia73 maybe try curing your olive's 😊
@@Phooie we started this year and they're delicious 😋
Love bertolli
In my humble opinion I think to make things “fair” and “unbiased” you should use a blindfolded person and don’t say which is which before they try them.
Lucini is the real deal and I think California is good. Bertolli is blended and it’s garbage. Lucini is pure evoo with harvest date.
My go to is Cally Ranch global
California Ranch and LUcini are same company ... american people dont like SUPER bitter taste, so they made it less bitter .. if u want a REAL super BITTER TASTE 100% olive, go with Lucini ornganic premium select....
Next time you do a test, make it double-blind so you don't know which one you are tasting. Much more scientific that way.
Jeez....if "light" and "poppy" are the most descriptive (and only) terms you can assign to your taste tests, why waste our time with your review? Jeez.
Right? Also, those seem pretty contradictory to me. SMH. Did you find a better taste test somewhere? I want one that's really flavorful.
@@deprofundis3293 I've always like the reviews America's Test Kitchen puts out and they have one on EVOO. I don't like to spend a ton of money on anything but still like to get the best within my price range. California Olive Ranch EVOO is still the best in its price range I think, and Bertolli is good too.
Bertolli has the best taste, I didn't know what I was missing all this time 🤗💞❤️💞🤗
U couldn’t be more wrong. Out of these three Bertolli is the worst. It’s blended oil. Lucini is the real deal with olive harvest date and pure evoo, not blended.
It’s my favourite too ☺️
