Chef's Selection Organic: Great value for an award winning, organic Extra Virgin
Olive Oil. With high fruitiness it is great to use cold over a fresh salad, or even to cook
with at high temperatures....
Health Benefits of TRUE Extra Virgin Olive Oil are part of the PJ KABOS story
PJ KABOS was founded by James Panagiotopoulos (PJ). James’ personal olive groves are trees lovingly planted
by his father and grandparents over half a century ago. These and neighboring olive groves in the surrounding
area of the historic, Ancient Olympia, Greece, produce the precious olive nectar of PJ KABOS. James'
grandmother, Mrs. Maria Panagiotopoulou, lived to the age of 103 and is perhaps one of the best indicators for
longevity for the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet. Our Extra Virgin Olive Oil was a big part of her
Mediterranean diet, as her family of six consumed upward of 400 Liters per year!

This product is produced entirely from the Greek Koroneiki olive variety (Monovarietal). A unique advantage of
PJ KABOS 'Chef's Selection Organic' Extra Virgin Olive Oil, is that it pairs perfectly with most foods.
Furthermore, it is exceptionally special to taste on its own, or poured directly over salads and for use in dressings.
Can I cook at high heat with PJ KABOS Chef's Selection Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil?
Yes, and in-fact it is best to cook with a high quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil because it is exactly this high
quality that protects the oil and food from degradation due to high heat cooking! Because of our product's
premium quality (high in monounsaturated fatty acids, antioxidants and with low acidity, among its many virtues)
it boosts a very high smoke point of >204°C (which is one of the highest smoke-points for an unrefined oil),
and is perfect for most high temperature cooking needs, including:
- Sautéing
- Deep-frying
- Baking
- Grilling
