What Is Moroccan Olive Oil?

Moroccan Olive Oil is olive oil that’s made in the foothills of the atlas mountains, an area that has risen up in recent years to be one of the largest producers of olive oil.

This mountain range features different subranges since it spans such a large amount of space across Northwestern Africa. Its various climates and altitudes make it perfect for growing particular flavors. 

Is Olive Oil From Morocco Better?

From extra virgin olive oil to our highest quality vinegar and other products, there are many tastes and health benefits of each of our products, including our Moroccan Olive Oil.

Morocco happens to be home to a unique variety of flavors, like the Moroccan picholine variety of olive. This olive has a nutty and fruity flavor to it and originated in the south of France.

Some other olive varieties include Dahbia and Arbequina.

When you choose Moroccan olive oil you’re choosing all the health benefits of regular olive oil, plus some interesting and one-of-a-kind flavors. 

Which Olive Oil Has the Most Polyphenols?

Polyphenols are full of antioxidants. They are reducing agents, which is to say they protect your body’s tissue from oxidative stress and other health issues like certain cancers, inflammation, and coronary heart disease. 

Luckily, olive oil is a great source of polyphenols! Olive oil has at least 30 different phenolic compounds, but not all olive oils have the same amount of polyphenols. The amount each kind has will depend on how it is processed and stored. 

Picholine olives used in Moroccan olive oils are known for having a high polyphenol count, so you get all the nutritious benefits from this region.

Extra virgin olive oil is the type that is known to contain the most polyphenols. Keep in mind when shopping that you’re more likely to spend more money when it comes to high-quality olive oils that are higher in polyphenols.
