The EVOO World Ranking is a system that ranks and evaluates the quality of extra virgin olive oils (EVOOs) based on awards received in international competitions. “EVOO” stands for “Extra Virgin Olive Oil,” which is the highest grade of olive oil obtained from the first cold pressing of olives.
This ranking aims to recognize and highlight the best-performing EVOO products and brands in olive oil competitions worldwide. The organization behind the EVOO World Ranking selects olive oil competitions held globally and assigns points to oils that win awards in these competitions. Using the accumulated points, the oils are ranked and included in a list known as the “EVOO World Ranking.”
The primary goal of this ranking is to celebrate excellence in extra virgin olive oil production and to guide consumers in identifying high-quality products. It provides insights into oils that have consistently been recognized as exceptional by tasting panels and experts in the field.
The EVOO World Ranking is part of the broader ranking initiative by the World Association of Journalists and Writers of Wines, Liquors, and Others (WAWWJ), an organization that brings together professionals in the wine, spirits, and related industries. As a result, this ranking serves as a valuable reference for EVOO enthusiasts looking to explore and enjoy the finest products available in the market.
