Estate Olive Oil
A type of olive oil that is obtained from olives grown on an individual farm. The olives are usually harvested by hand and the oil is pressed and bottled on site. Estate oils are among the best that are available, and they are expensively priced. They are usually sold on site or in specialty shops and are stored and displayed away from excessive heat and bright light, which cause deterioration in the flavor and quality of the olive oil. (In some food stores, displays of olive oil may be exposed to heat and light, but because of the quick turnover in most food stores, this may not result in a significant problem with the quality.) An estate olive oil is also known as a Single Estate Olive Oil.

Refined Olive Oil
Three types of olive oil are available as a result of refining processes:
Refined Olive Oil
Olive Oil
Olive Pomace Oil
Refined Olive Oil
Olive oil known as "Refined Oil" is obtained from refining virgin olive oil that has defects.
Virgin Olive Oil
Virgin olive oil grades are produced in the same manner as extra virgin grades. The oil is not refined or processed after pressing. The natural acidity levels are greater than extra virgin grades, ranging from 1.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Extra virgin olive oils are produced from the first pressing, which is performed within 24 to 72 hours of harvesting. Mechanical or hand pressing are the only methods used to obtain extra virgin olive oil.
Miscellaneous Olive Oils
There are other olive oils available to the consumer that are sold as value added products, such as light oils and flavored oils. The names given to these products do not necessarily determine the quality or grade of the oil, although the name may include the grade of the oil such as "Light Extra Virgin Olive Oil" or "Mild in Taste, Virgin Olive Oil".
