Your new morning ritual.

Yes — because consistency beats complexity. 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of Solio provides approx. 13 mg of polyphenols — more than twice the EU reference amount of 5 mg per 20 g of olive oil required for the authorized health claim regarding the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress. A spoonful daily is a simple way to firmly integrate high-quality EVOO into your routine.

Start with 1 teaspoon if you are new to this. Most people end up at 1 tablespoon (15 ml) per day. Take it straight or drizzle it over food – whatever helps you stick to the habit.

Completely normal. EVOO with a high polyphenol content tastes fresh, green, and peppery – sometimes with a gentle bitterness. This "bite" is often associated with polyphenols like oleocanthal and can become a bit milder after opening.

Three things: Polyphenol focus (lab-tested) – every harvest verifiable with a COA. Early harvest – greener olives, lower yield, more intense profile. Bottled in drops – we bottle in regular runs on demand so that your Solio arrives as fresh as possible. In short: You are buying concentration + freshness + proof – not 'just another oil'.

Polyphenols are natural antioxidant compounds from olives. They are part of what gives fresh EVOO its peppery taste and are linked to many of the studied benefits of olive oil. More polyphenols means more of these compounds per spoonful.

Because it's done the expensive way: early harvest (lower yield = more olives per bottle), independent lab tests (COA for every harvest), and bottling in drops (more handling/logistics, but less time bottled). You're paying for concentration + freshness + proof – not for a label.

EVOO is sensitive to time, light, and oxygen. We store Solio under controlled conditions at the source and bottle it in regular runs as orders come in – this way, it spends less time bottled before it reaches you.

We bottle and ship once a week, based on orders. This is why drops can sell out – freshness and limited availability are part of the model.

Store in a cool, dark place, away from heat and sunlight (not next to the stove). Close lid tightly. Once opened, use regularly – freshness is part of the concept.

Yes – but Solio is primarily an EVOO supplement for your daily routine. If you use it when cooking, it is best to do so gently (e.g., adding it to warm dishes, not "frying it to death"). For high-heat searing, use your preferred cooking fat – and use Solio instead as a daily spoonful/shot or as a ritual with your meals.

Yes. Solio is a single origin from Apulia, sourced from a small producer. No blending across regions or harvests – just one location, one harvest, one standard.

We ship to Germany, Austria, and Switzerland – with tracking.

If something arrives damaged, contact us with a photo and we will take care of it.

A COA (Certificate of Analysis) is an independent lab test for a specific harvest/batch. We publish it so you can check key quality indicators such as polyphenols, acidity, and peroxide value. View the lab report (PDF) to see the full test results.
