Family Reserve Organic - Phenolic Shot

This olive oil is on a completely different level compared to anything I’ve tried before. From the moment you open the bottle, you can tell this is a high-end extra virgin olive oil. What really stands out is the extremely high phenolic content (900+ mg/kg)—which is far above most standard olive oils and packed with powerful antioxidants. You can actually taste it too. I take a shot of this in the morning and it has a signature peppery, slightly bitter finish that high-quality olive oil lovers look for is unmistakable and a sign of its potency. It is so strong that a chaser drink strongly recommended. Also, it’s a single-origin Greek, and completely pure with no additives, which is exactly what I want in a premium oil. It truly enhances everything it touches. And the 16.9oz glass bottle not only looks elegant but also helps protect the oil’s quality and freshness. If you’re serious about quality, health benefits, and authentic Mediterranean flavor, this is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended!

Amazing quality. There are only two ways to really tell if olive oil is truly pure, without being "cut" with another oil (as most are now). One way is how it looks, tastes, and feels. This is dark, tastes amazing, has the correct viscosity, and slightly tickles the back of the throat, which is proof of high levels of Oleuropein - the compound that makes olive oil so good for you. The second way is that it comes with a certificate of compounds in the oil. This passes both tests, and did I say it tastes amazing? That bears repeating! This is worth every penny. In fact, I would say it's a bargain!

Wow! Love the peppery taste of this oil! We started taking shots of this oil once a day due to the phenol count. Love that this is independently tested and has the phenol count it claims. We were looking for the health benefits that come with taking EVOO shots. It’s a bit early to tell but we shall see! The oil is a beautiful, transparent golden color. Each pour has been pure with no sediment or foreign materials. The smell is pure olive and pepper, very earthy. We won’t be cooking with this one but easily could. It is a bit pricey for the quantity, however, quality over quantity. We would definitely repurchase!

I have to admit that it does taste awful. Just to be clear it is NOT rancid or bad. It is suppose to taste bitter and have a peppery taste in the back of your throat that may make you cough a couple of times. That's when you know that you got the real deal. I have purchased 7 bottles of this so far four for myself and 3 for family members. I had read up on it and all of the health benefits and decided to give it a whirl. I took 2 Tablespoons everyday for 10 days when I realized that I was walking with very little pain. I had suffered a bad injury in my back and hips and down the outside of my thighs. It had been about 3 years since it happened. I tried everything to no avail. There are days that it still bothers me when I have been doing a lot of weight bearing activities but I fair out so much better than I was and recovery time is much quicker. I shared it with my family members who have back, disk, hip and other pain. They took it for about 10 days the same way (2 Tablespoons each day) and both of them could golf all day without pain. I am not saying it is a miracle cure but it sure does make things better. I am on my 3rd bottle now and I will continue to take it for as long as they make it. As far as value for the money I absolutely think it is worth it. It is so much better than any kind of prescription drugs. It is high quality! It is good for so many things, heart, blood sugar, blood pressure and a host of other things. The calories in it are worth it. It helps with satiety and where it helps with blood sugar it keeps me fuller and more satisfied without eating empty calories of junk food and sugar. The real perk of the whole thing is feeling more flexible to be able to walk better. I use to take it for granted that I could walk six miles after being on my feet all day at work and now I am thrilled to just be able to get up and move without a lot of pain.

I use another great brand olive oil for my salads etc. but this one I take by spoonfuls due to its xtra benefits. Fabulous taste and bar none , the best quality olive oil I’ve ever tasted . I decided to do the subscribe and save cause I’m saving a few bucks and I’d like to have it regularly.

Love this olive oil. Gives the most burn in the back of your throat which is the polyphenols. So your taste buds in the back of the throat can verify their numbers. lol. Yes, you have taste buds in the back of your throat. And they can uniquely taste polyphenols. Otherwise, the oil tastes very good, not bitter to me, smells nice and strong olives.

Very good. Peppery and tasty. I use about half a shot a day. Will, I think, take time to see results, but thus far... good. I don't suggest tilting your hear back while ingesting as the pepper will definitely hit the back of your throat immediately. Just ingest like you would normally. A little pricey, but then again it's not an off-the-shelf EVOO product.

Good tasting.

El producto llegó muy bien empacado, gran calidad del producto.

This is wonderful oil. Excellent flavour

Ordering was easy delivery was relatively fast was very well packaged The bottle is very heavy glass. Good quality a little pricey.

Best tasting olive oil and the highest phenols of any other brand that I’ve found. It’s helping me feel great. Definitely recommended.

We also cook with EVOO. The only alternate fats we use are unsalted butter and cold-pressed coconut oil. I've read a *lot* about this particular oil on the net, it's supposed to be very good for you and you don't use it to cook with, it's more like a morning 'shot' of the best olive oil has to offer you. So here we are, and here it is: a terrific phenolic shot of goodness each day! Worth the money too: what price do you put on your health!
