Why We Use UV-Protective Bottles for Our Olive Oil
At Papa Vince, preserving the natural vitamins and antioxidants in our extra virgin olive oil is paramount.
Papa Vince stands out in the olive oil market by not only listing essential vitamins on our nutritional panel—20% DV of Vitamin E and 6% DV of Vitamin K—but also by conducting rigorous lab tests to monitor polyphenol and hydroxytyrosol levels.
These sensitive components can degrade through exposure to light and heat, diminishing the oil's health benefits.
That's why we package our oil in UV-protective bottles, specifically designed to shield it from light and heat during storage and handling.
Unlike clear or plastic containers that can accelerate oxidative damage, our bottles provide a protective barrier, ensuring every drop of olive oil maintains its nutritional quality and robust flavor.
This commitment ensures you enjoy all the health benefits and exceptional taste our oil has to offer.
