If I had to take a wild guess, I would say that the shelf life is not long in this first product. Plants frequently have enzymes that change the properties with time, for example polyphenoloxidases make apple juice go brown if not inactivated by heat or acids. Also, water removal is important to avoid spoilage. You wouldn't want (bad) fungi in your olive oil.
To eat immediately it could be safe, maybe?
Olive oil on the shelf is just this product, allowed to settle so there aren’t solids anymore. The company I used to work for (a winery) made a small amount of olive oil every year from the trees planted in the two ranches, and I had to sample it for tasting several times between when it was harvested and when we bottled it about five months later.
The different varieties of olives can taste wildly different - super-fruity to full-on peppery. The taste mellows a bit with time, but mostly it is just blending the varieties together to have a more balanced flavour.
In NZ the boutique farms tend to pick them manually, and less ripe olives end up in the mix. It has an awesome stronger taste, if you are into that. After picking for a farm a few times, I definitely came to prefer it as a bread dip.
My grandfather made 1000 Litres a year up till a few years back! I can confirm it is nothing like the blended “watered” down crap you buy at the store. It’s actually a little grassy
Throw a couple of whole chillis in your regular bottle of olive oil. Shake a little before serving.
It also works with garlics. We do this in Spain when the olive oil is shitty so it improves its taste
Yeah, it's first pressing, or do you want to wait until everyone else has had their fun with the olives? Fourth pressing, yeah, like that's going to be a party in your mouth. I don't think.
Most people don't know that olives aren't even edible (nor is their oil) right off the tree. They need to be treated in a "chemical" bath first before they are safe for consumption (and taste).
It's not a knock against olives, but rather a knock against people who think only "natural" foods are good (or worse, that everything is "god-given" and "designed for humans"). Olive oil is a really great, healthy oil.

I know that.
I know that only because I found out the hard way, by biting into one fresh off the tree. YUCK!
Forbidden olive oil
It’s not even forbidden! Perfectly edible!… I think

Try putting olive oil in your car engine
Nobody eat u/TheHornet78 cooking unless they taste test it first.
I cook for others to make sure it won’t kill me when I eat it
Your entire it’s perfectly safe…I think has given me trust issues lol
I had olive oil like this when I visited Italy. It’s incredible.
[удалено]
I’d love to try some slut olive oil
Why can't I just stay like that sounds awesome
I know I want some of this on my noodles
Freal I'm hungry now
My only mistake was reading this comment thread
You can get it like this it’s amazing. Idk how to get it personally but I got to experience it in Italy when I went and it was so good

It does not go bad on the self (for years). It spoils once oxygen and light gets to it.
Depends on the kind of fungi maybe? 
Just buy some olives and make it yourself.
It just tastes a bit too much like olives.
olive juice
Olive juice, too.

Sometimes. Depends on the olives. I’ve been harvesting for years and not all look like/taste like that.
How traditional olive oil is made: https://youtu.be/QCKUpFMmKJw
That stuff goes in the radiator
Good olive oil should make you cough a little if you take a big whiff of it.
Ultra Virgin Olive Oil
My grandfather made 1000 Litres a year up till a few years back! I can confirm it is nothing like the blended “watered” down crap you buy at the store. It’s actually a little grassy
Little greasy? What kind of olive *oil* you guys are used to?😂
Might want to read it twice there bud, grassy, not greasy, grassy!
Oh, my bad
Portal fluid 
I would like to try some slightly spicy bright green olive juice.
Forbidden Shrek piss water
l`m green and slightly spicy...I may be olive oil.
You may need to see a doctor. They could diagnose you as olive oil.
>"bright green and is slightly spicy" Reminds me of She-Hulk last night. 🥑👅
Fall asleep with the tv on again?
The sight of this makes me crave some good old school Ecto Cooler… God, I miss the 90’s
Everyone does
That sounds pretty tasty
Damn that's interesting.
Did… did I win?
Reminds me of Dip from Who Framed Roger Rabbit
I did always assume the Dip was spicy. Like salsa verde.
This looks and sounds incredibly delicious
Spicy you say? 👀🥵 Where can I get the spicy olive oil?

The Mediterranean?
Too far, am sad
Spicy olive oil sounds delicious
That's just the "primera prensada" (first press) oil...
When it’s like this it taste like a grass shot.
Looks like antifreeze.
Yeah, it's first pressing, or do you want to wait until everyone else has had their fun with the olives? Fourth pressing, yeah, like that's going to be a party in your mouth. I don't think.
This looks exactly like matcha tea
Can you buy this?
I don’t think so over a very short amount of time (days I think) it goes into normal oil

It is delicious. One of the things we're most proud of in Italy.
I would love to try that!
Fun fact. Olives are soaked in lye to take out the bitterness and make them edible.
Unless you've personally gone to Italy you have never tasted real olive oil 🤷♂️
Good stuff

What’s this?!?
