The rules for the northern hemisphere are available here in English, French and Spanish, offering guidance for this prestigious competition.
This non-profit award aims to highlight the best extra virgin olive oils, encouraging producers, associations and packers to maintain superior quality standards. It also serves to educate consumers about the remarkable characteristics of these oils. Through rigorous evaluation, the competition identifies harmonious extra virgin olive oils that demonstrate exceptional organoleptic qualities within the defined categories.
Producers interested in participating must ensure that their samples and the required documentation arrive at the IOC headquarters between Tuesday and Friday, no later than 14 February 2025.
