PDO Val di Mazara Extra Virgin Olive Oil
This oil carries the high-importance PDO certification, ensuring it is an authentic Sicilian product made from specific cultivars (Biancolilla, Cerasuola, Nocellara del Belice) rather than a low-quality industrial blend. While it lacks the specific chemical transparency (polyphenol and FFA counts) of 'gold standard' medicinal oils, it offers exceptional value and avoids all major industry red flags like clear glass or multi-country sourcing.
