USDA Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil by THYA, First Cold Pressed, Single Source, Unblended, Natural, NON-GMO EVOO for Salad, Cooking, Baking, Dipping, (25.4 fl oz/ 750ml)

I received this THYA bottle of chili oil a week ago and have used it three times already. It is a tasty, spicy, smooth oil with a fresh, poignant taste. My taste buds are slightly compromised by a prior sinus infection but I still love my spicy food. There are so many uses for this. I put some on drained pasta before I sauce it to keep it from sticking and give the pasta an extra 'kick'. A few drops on and antipasto salad besides a high grade EVOO and red wine vinegar is great. On top of a bowl of chili, with or without additional hot sauce, chopped onion and shredded cheese, ramen noodles, and every time we carryout Chinese or Thai food that is listed as 'Hot" or Spicy but is always dumbed down for American palates. A few drops in the pan when you scramble your eggs, or a few drops on top of an egg poached in tomato soup a top a slice of Dave's Killer Bread 21 Grain toast is superb. You can find these oils for a buck or so less, but at this point in life, I want something I know and have enjoyed before. Give it a try and see if you agree.

We are so fortunate to have found this olive oil. Especially after being used to Costco olive oil in a large plastic bottle that is a blend from several countries. THYA is one of the best tasting olive oils in glass from one area in Turkey we've ever had the pleasure to try. After a long search for a quality, tasteful and rich tasting olive oil, we have found our olive oil nirvana in this brand., besides being affordable and readily available thanks to Amazon. Although, in all fairness, in a pinch, Costco has added a similarly organic brand glass bottle from California which is almost comparable to the smooth taste of THYA.

This is a delicious tasting organic EVOO that is single country source, and has a delicious fruit and pepper taste. I had bought two bottles from a specialist shop and replaced with this and my house full of adults all raved at this and thought it superior taste despite being less expensive. Overall this is my new, staple olive oil for daily use. The only thing I can't comment upon is freshness or if it's kept sufficiently cool during shipping from Greece, but it tastes good and is in a dark bottle as it should be.

This Thya reminds me of California Olive ranch, with its mild flavor and low acidity. It is completely unobjectionable. And I like it. I can recommend two other brands that have more olive flavor. One is Ellora Farms which is buttery and low acid. The other is Kouzini which has a slight burn as it reaches the back of your palette, and is a super value in the 3 liter tin. I like Kouzini the best. But sometimes I want a milder flavor. And for that Thya fits bill.

Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I bought the big bottle in Oct 2020. There is no harvest date on the bottle (which there should be). The Use-by-date is 4/22. Since it's the big bottle I poured half into a smaller dark green dispenser bottle and put the other half in the frig. It turned solid in the cold as it should, so not likely to be adulterated. It is now near the end of November, I have taken the remainder from the frig (which returned to original consistency) and am down to about 5 ounces remainng. I am far from an olive oil expert but read about it as much as I can. I Like it and will buy again if I can find out the current expration date. Pros: It is mild, seems unadulterated, is purported to be organic, has an acceptable best-by-date (about 18 months from purchase), Cons: Wish the harvest date was on the bottle. Wish both harvest and use-by dates were listed in the Amazon description.

Maybe I'm being generous with the 3 stars, overall this olive oil doesn't leave much of an impression. It's organic which I appreciate, but it's bland and I really don't know what else to say about it because it's so forgettable. Maybe if you like lighter flavored EVOO then you might like this, but I've lived in Tuscany the past 5 years and really came to appreciate the bright, peppery oils they produce. Even the lighter tasting oils and oils from the different regions had much more taste and personality than this one. A lot of money for an average oil.

Excellent olive oil, smooth, light, delicious with salad. Guys this is the real deal. No sticky texture, no heavy aroma, no trace of unwanted stuff, just clean pleasingly aromatic good olive oil. Very good value.. Will be a return customer for sure. Try it with Rosemary or oregano. Bon appetite! Thanks guys, keep up the good job.

I'll keep it short, and simple. It tastes like legit, pure, single source olive oil. I mean that's what they say it is, and that's what I tasted. I've tasted a bunch of olive oils, and the cheap "blends"--legally it only needs to be 50% real oil to be labeled, but the other 50% can be cheap, unhealthy seed oils that are high in omega 6 fatty acids--basically garbage that has a slightly sweet taste. This is a big giveaway. This oil is not that and has a fantastic, clean olive oil flavor. Anyway, I like it and will buy it again.
