Filippo Berio Extra Light Olive Oil 101.4 fl oz (3L) – Bulk Size, High Smoke Point

Extra light olive oil from Filippo Berio is the go-to cooking oil for kitchens that demand performance without compromise. This 101.4 fl oz (3L) bulk bottle delivers a neutral, mild flavor and a high smoke point that makes it ideal for frying, sautéing, baking, and everyday cooking where you want the food — not the oil — to shine. Imported from Italy, crafted from premium Mediterranean olives, and trusted by home cooks and professionals alike.

Extra Light Olive Oil Built for High-Heat, Everyday Cooking

Filippo Berio Extra Light Olive Oil is a blend of refined olive oil and virgin olive oil. The refining process removes the strong flavor compounds found in extra virgin olive oil while retaining the natural benefits of olives. The result is a clean, neutral-tasting oil with a high smoke point — significantly higher than extra virgin — making it the right choice for high-heat applications.

Use it for deep frying, pan frying, roasting, and baking. Its neutral flavor profile makes it an excellent base for mayonnaise, salad dressings, marinades, and sauces where you want full control over the flavor. It will not overpower delicate ingredients or compete with spices and aromatics.

The 3-liter bulk format is designed for households and foodservice operations that cook frequently. At 101.4 fl oz, this bottle replaces multiple smaller bottles and delivers outstanding cost-per-ounce value. The wide-grip plastic bottle is easy to handle and pour, even when full.

Filippo Berio has been producing premium Italian olive oils since 1867. Their Mediterranean sourcing — drawing from olives grown in Italy, Spain, Greece, and Tunisia — ensures consistent quality and flavor across every bottle. Low acidity and a deep greenish-gold color reflect the quality of the cold-pressed source oils used in the blend.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between extra light olive oil and extra virgin olive oil?
Filippo Berio Extra Light Olive Oil is a refined olive oil blend with a neutral flavor and high smoke point, making it ideal for frying and baking. Extra virgin olive oil is unrefined, with a strong olive flavor and lower smoke point best suited for dressings and finishing. Extra light olive oil retains the health benefits of olives while offering greater cooking versatility and heat stability.

What is the smoke point of Filippo Berio Extra Light Olive Oil and why does it matter?
Filippo Berio Extra Light Olive Oil has a smoke point of approximately 465°F (240°C) — one of the highest among olive oil grades. A high smoke point means the oil remains stable at high temperatures without breaking down, smoking, or producing harmful compounds. This makes it safe and effective for deep frying, pan frying, roasting, and other high-heat cooking methods.

How should I store Filippo Berio Extra Light Olive Oil to maintain freshness?
Store Filippo Berio Extra Light Olive Oil in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Avoid storing near the stove or in direct light, as heat and UV exposure accelerate oxidation and reduce shelf life. Once opened, use within 12–18 months for best quality. The 3L bulk bottle is best suited for kitchens that cook frequently and will use the oil regularly.
