The Olio Extra Verging Di Olivia window blends official US food-safety guidance with typical manufacturer opened-storage instructions. The label on your specific product always wins if it is stricter.
Storage note
For high-quality, unopened olive oil, both UK and US guidelines treat it as a stable pantry item, with the primary concern being rancidity over time rather than immediate spoilage.
Check before eating
Look
The oil may develop a noticeable haze or cloudiness, indicating oxidation.
Smell
A strong, acrid, or 'crayon-like' smell signals rancidity, meaning the fats have broken down.
Texture
The texture remains liquid, but excessive oxidation can lead to a slightly thickened, oily residue.
Freezing
Yes. Pour into an airtight container and freeze; allow to thaw slowly in the refrigerator.
