Pure Olive Oil for Every Cooking Need — 5L Bulk Value
Filippo Berio Pure Olive Oil sits between extra virgin and extra light on the olive oil spectrum. It is cold-pressed to retain the natural nutrients and aroma of the olive, then lightly refined for a smooth, mild flavor that works across a wide range of cooking applications. It is not as assertive as extra virgin, and not as neutral as extra light — it is the versatile middle ground that professional kitchens rely on daily.
Use it for sautéing vegetables, pan frying proteins, roasting, baking, and preparing marinades and dressings. Its balanced flavor complements rather than competes with your ingredients. It holds up well to moderate heat, making it a reliable everyday cooking oil for virtually any recipe in any cuisine.
The 5-liter plastic container is built for volume use. At 169 fl oz, it replaces multiple smaller bottles and delivers exceptional cost-per-ounce value. The wide-grip handle and controlled pour spout make it easy to use even when the container is full. Store upright in a cool, dark pantry and it will maintain freshness for months.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is pure olive oil and how is it different from extra virgin olive oil?
Filippo Berio Pure Olive Oil is a blend of cold-pressed and lightly refined olive oil. It has a milder, more neutral flavor than extra virgin olive oil and a slightly higher smoke point, making it more versatile for everyday cooking. Extra virgin olive oil is fully unrefined with a stronger olive flavor, best used for finishing dishes and dressings. Pure olive oil is the better choice for high-volume, everyday cooking applications.
Is Filippo Berio Pure Olive Oil suitable for frying and high-heat cooking?
Yes. Filippo Berio Pure Olive Oil has a moderate-to-high smoke point suitable for pan frying, sautéing, and oven roasting at standard cooking temperatures. It is more heat-stable than extra virgin olive oil due to its light refining process. For deep frying at very high temperatures, Filippo Berio Extra Light Olive Oil with its higher smoke point may be a better choice.
How should I store the 5-liter Filippo Berio Pure Olive Oil container to keep it fresh?
Store Filippo Berio Pure Olive Oil upright in a cool, dark location away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and strong odors. Avoid storing near the stove or in a warm pantry. Once opened, use within 12–18 months for optimal freshness and flavor. The 5L bulk size is best suited for kitchens that use olive oil regularly — daily or near-daily use ensures the oil stays fresh and flavorful throughout its shelf life.
