Question 1

Seller: "This oil is a product of cold extraction, with extremely high polyphenol content (700-2800 mg/kg)" (?)  A very wide range. Pls explain.

Accepted Answer

Dear Quentin Johnson,
 We apologize for our late reply due to Easter Holidays in Greece (19 & 20 of April) and we would like to thank you for making this very good question.
The measured phenolic content of high phenolic E.V.O.O.s may vary greatly depending on the method of measurement.  Here is a short reference to the 2 most prevalent of them: 
•       H.P.L.C. method (with 2 variations : HPLC -Acidic Hydrolysis & HPLC-COI):
This method gives the lowest results and many claim that is outdated due to it's low sensitivity.  However is the only recognized method of measurement from the International Olive Council (I.O.C.). Also the  Hellenic Food Authority  has made the use of H.P.L.C.-COI method obligatory for all Greek olive oil companies, so that they are allowed to use the relative Health Claim (E.U. 432/2012) by European Food  Safety Authority  (E.F.S.A.).
Additionally this method has high availability as there are many international certified labs available for  cross examining the results, something that increases significantly the reliability and objectivity of the method.
•       N.M.R. method: is a relatively new method which usually gives the higher results. It thought to measure a wider range of olive oil phenolic compounds. Many claim this to be a better method and they prefer to use  it as usually gives much higher measurements (from 30% up to 500% higher than HPLC) therefore is better for marketing purposes too.
However, as far as we know, there is no official recognition from any significant international organizations and it seems that it produces inconsistent results, even on the same olive oil samples.
Additionally only one lab worldwide uses this method, so there is no possibility of cross examinations and therefore highly reduces it's relative objectivity & reliability. Much bigger availability and further evolution, will be probably be the key factor for a potential substitution of the  HPLC method in the future .
Based on the facts above,  we are making periodically measurements by using all methods of measurements (including others not mentioned) and use average values  in order to ensure the top quality of our product, but we have to use HPLC method as method of reference.
Coming back to your original question the relative wide range of polyphenols consist of the measurements of both methods (lower values HPLC-COI, higher values HPLC-Acidic Hydrolysis & N.M.R).

Best Regards
Mourlas Dimitrios

Question 2

I am looking to buy this partucalr oil in liter bottle is that available please advise

Accepted Answer

Dear customer,
Unfortunately, our product is not available in litre bottles BUT there is a great reason for that, irrelative with marketing and price tricks.
Olive oil (and in particular its phenolic compounds), is sensitive to light (mainly ultraviolet irradiation), air contact (oxygen) and to high temperatures, because it can be oxidized and lose part of its high-quality and valuable health protective properties. This is actually one of the main reasons, regarding our decision to use exclusively dark coloured (UV-protection), glass containers of small capacity for our product. The use of glass containers with small capacity is crucial, in order to avoid oxidation from the extensive air contact. Larger glass containers, means longer-extended consuming period, and therefore extended required storing period of bottles that have been already opened. Something that causes a more extensive oxidation from air contact with larger quantity of oxygen, for a longer time period.
Conclusively, the most important reasons for our relative sophisticated selection, are: best preserving of the quality and organoleptic characteristics, protection of the phenolic content, transportation durability, easier storage & handling, and best suitability as gift idea. 
Regarding ordering of bigger quantities, we provide the selection of our relative multi-packs, which is the best optimized and more affordable solution. Please also consider that all the materials we use, including packaging, bottles and labels etc., are 100% recyclable.
By this way, we ensure the top quality of our superb product, to its last drop.

Question 3

Is the entire bottle about 1 cup?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The olive oil in the bottle is approximately 1.1 cup (8.8 Oz).

Question 4

seller, what's the difference in taste between the gold and the green ?

Accepted Answer

While both options are high in polyphenols, which make tastier and more nutritious, each features its own distinct variants:

Hypereleon Gold Edition:
Intense bitter taste (bitter is better!)
Spicy (revealing high amounts of priceless polyphenols from the first drop).

Hypereleon Green Edition”
Slightly bitter taste at the base of the tongue
Slight burn (pungency) in the throat, revealing immense polyphenols from the first taste.
