A low acidity level is a sign of proper harvesting and pressing processes. ","icerik":"<p class=\"font_8\">The acidity level often mentioned in olive oil is frequently misunderstood. It is not related to the taste of the olive oil, but to the harvesting and processing conditions of the olives. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">This value refers to the amount of free oleic acid present in the olive.
