Italianraw is unfiltered extra virgin olive oil. This oil is the most rustic, genuine product of the farmers. It’s dense and more fruity also because of the sediments left after the pressing of the olives.
Unfiltered olive oil may have a cloudy appearance due to olive particles suspended in the oil.
We suggest consuming the oil at its freshest and before 18 months from its opening.

From a health perspective, unfiltered olive oil is rich in anti-inflammatory antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and zero dietary cholesterol.
These antioxidants are perfect for preventing various heart diseases, maintaining a healthy body weight, and providing balanced nutrition for the human body.
