Applied Sensory: Our New Extra Virgin Olive Oil Certifier

January 19, 2026 Lianne Campodonico

We have a new certifier for our olive oil: Applied Sensory. You’ll now notice their seal on our label next to our Certified Organic seal. We relied on their taste panel and chemical lab reports starting in 2024 to assure our customers that our olive oil is of the highest quality.

Applied Sensory’s taste panel has determined that our 2025 Tuscan Blend EVOO has zero sensory defects, is qualified as extra virgin and is of medium robust intensity. The flavor notes of our oil include green olive, green almond, green grass, herbaceous, green banana and artichoke.

For many of our customers, the chemical analysis of oil is important too. Here are the numbers for our 2025 harvest oil.

  • Free fatty acid % = 0.09 [CA State Standard: <0.5]

  • Peroxide Value = 7 [CA State Standard: <15]

  • Absorbance at 232mm = 1.71 [CA Standard: <2.40]

  • Total Polyphenols = 542 mg/kg [High polyphenol levels are between 400-550 mg/kg]
