Once considered a rustic product consumed mainly at the source, unfiltered extra virgin olive oil is reclaiming its place on the table.
Straight from the mill, our cloudy, intensely aromatic oil is now gaining appreciation among chefs, food professionals, and discerning consumers all over the United Arab Emirates.
Unlike standard filtered oils, unfiltered extra virgin olive oil is bottled without passing through filtration systems that remove micro-particles of olive pulp and natural sediments.
The result is an oil that appears slightly cloudy or opaque, especially when freshly produced. But this natural turbidity is not a flaw—it’s a sign of minimal processing and freshness.
These microscopic particles contribute to:
More intense aromas
Richer flavor complexity
A fuller, rounder mouthfeel
Many producers and chefs describe unfiltered oil as “olive oil in its purest expression.”
Because the oil retains tiny fragments of fruit and natural moisture, its taste is often greener, more vibrant, and more aromatic than filtered versions. Notes of freshly cut grass, green tomato, artichoke, or almond tend to be more pronounced.
For this reason, unfiltered olive oil is rarely used for long cooking processes. Instead, it shines as a finishing oil, where its character can truly stand out.
