From your link:

"Unlike wine, olive oil is always better in the year of its production,
and the colour – ranging from pale golden yellow to deep green –
generally has no bearing on its taste."


Thanks for the link, PeterL!

I'm still put off by the dark glass and labels obscurring the oil, so I
stick with my old standard. I wish there was an extra virgin olive
tasting to attend and buy from, like a wine tasting.

All the best,

Andy
