What is first, cold-pressed?

0

These are terms that are a bit outdated, but still used to describe olive oils. Years ago the oil was actually “pressed” from the paste and the first pressing was said to be the best. Cold-pressed refers to the temperatures during the extraction process. Today the paste is almost always warmed, but if it is heated too high it can destroy some of the taste quality characteristics.
