very high quality - does not congeal in refrigerator.
great price

This is a very good tasting olive oil and the price is outstanding.

I was a little concerned about how it would ship but BMA wrapped each can in thick bubble wrap and they arrived in perfect shape with no dents, leaks or damage. In addition, I received a lightening fast order acknowledgement and with standard shipping received the order in just a few days.

Excellent product, excellent price and excellent customer service. If that doesn't make for a five star rating, I don't know what would.

This stuff is real Mafia olive oil! Genco has been imported since the turn of the last century but it was mostly available only in the northeastern tier of the US. Genco is the only dealer that still ships a full gallon container. Sometimes there is a slight peppery sting with extra virgin oil but not with Genco; it is as smooth as good scotch!
I got my shipment in about three days but the product was shipped via DHL, which is not the best, so that amount of time was understandable.

I hesitated purchasing this olive oil fearing it would not be like my usual brand. Although it was dark in color, the performance was the same as my usual brand. The price is what I really liked. Quart for quart it was a more economical product to use.

Good product. Good price. Excellent value. What else can you say about olive oil. Cold pressed is the thing you look for when you buy it.

This product is superior to most olive oils in the US market. When purchasing by the gallon, it is a good price compared to a small bottle for $10 - $16, even with shipping considered. The distributor did a follow up call to ask if the product arrived in good condition and if I was satisfied. Great job!

I've purchased this product several times in the past and the taste is excellent. I have used many brands and this is my favorite. It has none of the sting and aftertaste of some of the other extra virgin olive oils. The price is excellent. It has a rich buttery flavor which I find very agreeable. It must be refrigerated if stored for any period of time due to the fact that olive oil will turn rancid due to heat. I use a dark green bottle to dispense what I plan to use in a short time to avoid light which affects taste. It is an excellent product for medicinal purposes as well. I've found that extra virgin olive oil is particularly useful for the treatment of diabetes. The anti-oxidents in it allow the body's cells to absorb insulin much easier which lowers blood sugar. Mixed with fresh garlic this effect is increased even more. This brand can be consumed by itself much easier due to its very mild taste. Some of the other brands tend to leave a nasty after-bite that is very uncomfortable. I will not mention the other brands as this would not be fair to them. I'm sure each brand of olive oil has it's own following due to the taste preferences of the person who is using it. I highly recommend this brand but I wish the price had not increased by such a large amount. It is still a good value though.

this is the best olive oil we have ever used and this company ships faster than any we have bought from plus there other items look just as good as this item

The delivery was prompt and on time. The follow-up call to make sure the shipment arrived without delay and question of damage was excellent.

Ordered it 20th got it 22nd. Last time I bought a "brand" name 25oz. bottle for $9.99. Never again! $36.40 total for
a brand I like and enjoy. I thought I'd get this maybe by this Friday. I am seriously empressed by the turn around of this order. Well packaged for shipping, double bubble and plenty of peanuts! And most important... Mmmm good!
