Mr. Papou'sExtra Virgin Olive Oil | First Cold Pressed | Family Owned | Harvested in Greece | 3 Liter - 101.4 fl oz (3 Liter)

Excellent olive oil with a peppery bite which I love. I shipped two smaller cans of olive oil back when I went to Greece and paid an outrageous price for shipping. This was the same quality with free shipping.

Thank you Papous for the authentic taste of olive oil that I was looking for a quiet period of time . It is really family farm with a high standard !!!!!!!

Top quality. I'll order again

Outstanding!!!

I just got the product, so I haven’t had a chance to taste it. I don’t know the quality of the olive oil. The 3 litter can came in with a big bent. So, for these reasons I gave it a 4 star.

Have been purchasing this oil for over a year now. Quality and price has remained constant. They have maintained their prices given the huge fluctuations in EVOO prices in 2023/2024. No price gouging from what I can tell.

This olive oil has a great flavor, and it definitely is a quality extra virgin olive oil. Nearly all the EVOO you get in the grocery store is either not first cold-pressed, or is mixed with cheaper oils like canola. A true EVOO will have a mild bitter taste, as should be expected since olives are bitter. It will also give you a mild burning or tingling sensation in the back of the throat, caused by a type of healthy polyphenol called Oleocanthal, and is often accompanied by at least one cough.As mentioned by others, the can is weak and easily dented, and that is the way I received it. I contacted the producer/seller, mentioning that nearly all of the negative reviews were due to the cans. They said they were being redesigned this year to be stronger.I always pour olive oil into a smaller dark green glass bottle (olive oil keeps better if not exposed to light, so don't use a clear bottle). It's also amazing how many people don't know how to pour out of the 3 liter cans. That pour spout lifts up a little over an inch. To do that, first use two hands to lift up on the thin green plastic tabs on the outside edge of the spout. Lift it up as far as it can go, then continue to pull up to raise the spout. If instead you try to pour while the spout is flush with the can, it's going to go all over the place. Another hint is to use one of those metal bottle openers to poke a small hole at the edge of the top of the can, on the opposite side of the spout. Just barely puncture the can with the bottle opener, don't press it all the way down as you would on a normal can. This hole will allow air to get into the container as the oil is poured through the spout, and you will get a smooth flow with no chugging or gulping of the oil. I never spill a drop this way. When done, I use a piece of masking tape to cover the hole, leaving the edge of the tape free so it can be pulled up again the next time you are pouring.I do wish that more EVOO producers published the polyphenol levels of their oil. Many of us use EVOO, not just for its great taste, but also for its health benefits. I believe that Mr. Papou's would benefit from publishing their levels since they use the Koroneiki variety of olives, which is one of only a few that have been shown to contain very high levels of polyphenols. Besides the type of olive, several other factors affect the polyphenol level, including the climate for that harvest year and how it was processed.2021 Update: I often make pesto with the olive oil. It's so good compared to any of the ready-made stuff. I use fresh basil, almonds (in place of the traditional pine nuts), fresh garlic (better tasting and much healthier than garlic powder), grated Romano/Parmesan, and the olive oil. I just wing the amounts of everything. You want the final product to be quite thick.

It is my first time trying the brand and I definitely love it. The flavor is pure and tasty. It meets all my expectations about an extra virgin, cold-pressed olive oil.Since I don't have a dark color container for olive oil in the kitchen. I just put it in a transplant glass and refill it once a week. The oil keeps fresh and works great under the circumstance.*One thing to pay attention to is making sure you PULL the nozzle up TO THE END! It's easy to think you already pull it out correctly, but not. And even so, the oil still spills often when pouring out of the tin box. I have to be very careful every time.Although the user experience with the nozzle is not so good, I still like to give the olive oil a 5-star. I will purchase again and look forward to having a consistently quality product along with an improvement in the nozzle in the future.
