What makes an olive oil truly exceptional?

In this episode, Ben Moss sits down with award-winning olive oil producer Richard Meisler, owner of San Miguel Olive Farm, to uncover the real story behind olive oil quality—what’s on the label, and what isn’t. From “Tree to Mill,” Meisler explains the overlooked details that separate supermarket oil from the best-in-class, high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oils.

They cover how farming practices, harvest timing, pressing methods, and storage all influence potency and flavor. Along the way, Meisler offers practical tips on how to recognize quality, avoid common pitfalls, and understand the difference between marketing and meaningful standards.

A must-watch for anyone who uses olive oil—or wants to make it part of a healthy lifestyle.
