Why does this extra virgin olive oil have a Nutri‑Score of B despite its high fat content?

Nutri‑Score rewards foods that are low in sugars, salt and saturated fat, and it gives points for fruit, vegetable or nut content; because the oil contains zero sugar and salt and a relatively low saturated‑fat share (≈15 % of total fat), the positive points offset the high total fat, resulting in a B grade.

Is this extra virgin olive oil suitable for vegan, keto and gluten‑free diets?

Yes, the oil is 100 % plant‑derived, contains no animal ingredients or gluten, and its high monounsaturated fat content matches the macronutrient profile favored by vegan and keto eating patterns.

What is the best way to store this olive oil after opening to preserve its quality?

Store the bottle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat; reseal tightly after each use and use within 12‑18 months for optimal flavor and oxidative stability.

Product Insights

This Monini Extra Virgin Olive Oil is sold in a 750 ml recyclable glass bottle and is certified EU organic, containing 100 % extra‑virgin olive oil from organically farmed olives. Classified as a culinary fat (PNNS groups: “Fat and sauces”, “Fats”) it earns a Nutri‑Score of B and falls in the minimally processed (NOVA 2) category, offering no sugars or salt but a very high total fat content. While its saturated‑fat proportion (≈15 g per 100 g) is lower than many fats, the overall high fat load and a moderate Eco‑Score of C indicate both nutritional benefits and environmental considerations.
