Olive oil: why a canister and not a bottle?
Imagine proudly crossing the alps, with a 5-litre canister in the boot, full to bursting with the best olive oil, fresh from Italy or Greece. The chirping of the cicadas is still ringing in your ears as the warm Mediterranean air slowly gives way to the fresh Alpine breeze. This canister is not just a container - it is a piece of holiday that you take home with you.
However, not everyone has the opportunity to bring home such a treasure straight from holiday. Fortunately, you can also purchase the same high-quality olive oil from the comfort of your own home in our online shop. Click here for our premium oils.
Advantages of a 5-litre canister of olive oil::
- Cost efficiency: compared to smaller bottles, the canister offers significant cost savings.
- Sustainability: Less packaging material per litre of oil means a reduction in the ecological footprint.
- Longer shelf life: If stored correctly, the oil retains its quality over a longer period of time.
- Practical storage: With a canister you ensure a long-term supply.
- Versatility: Ideal for preparing dishes, salads or marinades.
For daily use, it is advisable to pour the oil into a dark bottle with a volume of 0.5 to 1 litre and store the remaining canister tightly closed in a cool, dark place.
