International Olympia Health & Nutrition Awards 2025

10 Years of Innovation, Research, and Quality in Olive Oil Production

For the past ten years, we’ve focused on one thing: creating extra virgin olive oil that tastes exceptional and is packed with proven, health-promoting phenolic compounds. Each year, the International Olympia Health & Nutrition Awards, organised by the World Olive Centre for Health, brings leading researchers together to recognise the world’s highest‑phenolic EVOOs.

At the 2025 ceremony, we were honoured with the International Olympia Health & Nutrition Award, recognising our ten years of dedication to research, quality and progress in high-phenolic olive oil.

This latest award joins a growing list of honours, including our 2024 Gold Award for total phenol content for The Governor. Over the past seven years, we’ve collected ten Gold honorary prizes and taken part in several clinical studies.

The Best Extra Virgin Olive Oil To Drink Daily

At The Governor EVOO, excellence isn’t just something we aim for – it’s what we deliver. With 85 national and international awards, our olive oil is celebrated for its superb quality and unique health benefits.
Crafted with care, The Governor has quickly earned a reputation as the finest high-phenolic olive oil in the UK and further afield. What truly makes it special is not only its rich, vibrant flavour but also its proven concentration of health-boosting compounds.

Unrivalled in Polyphenols and Oleocanthal

The Governor EVOO contains up to ten times more polyphenols than most extra virgin olive oils, making it one of the most potent options available. These natural compounds offer a host of health benefits:

In particular, The Governor boasts one of the highest recorded levels of Oleocanthal, a rare phenolic compound found only in premium EVOOs. Oleocanthal has been linked to improved cognitive function and reduced inflammation.

100th Award

The Governor has now reached a historic milestone, celebrating its 100th award. We were named winners at the KOTINOS International Gold Award Olive Oil Competition 2026, with the ceremony taking place at the International Feed Expo in Greece.

This is the best olive oil we have ever had, it's far superior than any other we have tried, we won't be buying any other. We are on our 2nd bottle now and the added health benefits makes it even more appealing and the service is first class.
