- Is this oil good enough to use every day?
- Yes. It is a mild, buttery extra virgin oil suited to dressings, bread and finishing dishes. It is not a peppery oil for aggressive seasoning.
- How does it compare with Galantino's tins and bottles?
- The oil is in the same family style; the difference is the vessel. Tins and dark bottles cost less for the same volume and pour more cleanly. The ceramic jug is for display and gifting.
- Can I refill the jug?
- Yes, the jug is ceramic and can be refilled or repurposed once empty. Rinse and dry it thoroughly before adding new oil, and keep it out of direct sunlight.
- How should I store it?
- Keep it closed, cool and away from light and the stove. Ceramic blocks light, but heat still speeds up rancidity, so a cupboard beats the countertop next to the hob.
- Is the jug dishwasher safe?
- No. Hand-wash the ceramic with mild soap and warm water, and dry it fully before refilling. Painted decoration can wear with harsh detergents.
- What is in the box?
- One 16.9 fl oz hand-painted ceramic jug of extra virgin olive oil. No pourer or stopper is included beyond the jug's own closure.
- Where is the Galantino Extra Virgin Olive Oil Hand-Painted Ceramic Jug 16.9 fl oz cheapest?
- At Nordstrom, for $70.00, as of our latest check.
