WHY YIVA

YIVA means superior and precious, and it has been choosing as the brand name by taking inspiration from the Turkic Yiva tribe- one of the Oghuz Tribes- with a history dating back to 1100s. Yiva tribe was one of the Turkic tribes that settled in Buyukbelen Village, Saruhanli District which is our production centre and played a role as a Turkish tribe that introduced Turkic and Nomad culture in our region.

The formation process of YIVA brand dating back to 20 years ago started in an empty land with amateur spirit.

The love and commitment for the mother earth and olive trees laid foundations of a corporate company in a brief time with principles, ambition and goals combined with the knowledge for cultivating the earth.

In the course of this period, past experiences from the conventional agricultural methods have been mixed with contemporary agricultural methods. The process from cultivation, maintenance of trees, careful selection and picking of olives, producing olive oil with mechanical methods to packaging of the olive oil is implemented as a workflow that is monitored carefully.

*acid: (acidity), In general, acidity of olive oil refers to the percentage of oleic acid in olive oil of one hundred grams. In the food sector, it is one of the most important aspects determining the aroma, taste, and expiry date of a product. Acidity is a crucial factor determining the aroma and taste of the food product. Acidity also affects the ability of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi to reproduce in the food product

**peroxide ratio: Active oxygens quantity in micrograms in 1g oil. Peroxides are compounds that are produced during the oxidation of oil.This is the result of a positive correlation between the number of peroxides and the degree of spoilage of the oil.

This system in the body is also defined as the name of the disease if the functioning of the organs named after it is impaired.We can define the organs of the cardiovascular system as the circulatory system, i.e., the heart and blood vessels

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF "OLIVE OIL"

Internet searches reveals results about the acidity when we search olive oil online. Acidity is usually checked to ascertain how natural and pure olive oil is and have an indicator of its aroma. So, what should be the acidity of olive oil?

In brief:

Metric of Acidity for Olive Oil:

Metric of acidity for olive oil is the percentage of the oleic acid quantity in olive oil of one hundred grams. Acidity measures the quantity of the free fatty acids in olive oil; therefore, acidity is a general indicator of the quality of extra virgin olive oils.

As a parameter written on the labels of the bottles, acidity, measures the quantity of free fatty oleic acid in olive oils. Acidity is the ratio of the free oleic acid in total quantity of olive oil. It should be indicated as a percentage (%) on the labels; however, this ratio is sometimes expressed as degree (°) for certain reasons.

Acid and Aroma Balance in Olive Oil:

There may be confusing information about the acidity of olive oil among olive oil consumers. Everyone thinks that it is a good idea to buy olive oil according to its acidity without tasting it. In reality, fatty acids have no taste. Therefore, the acidity ratio should not be considered as the only criterion while selecting olive oil.

Why?

1- Because they may confuse acidity with one of the basic tastes: sweet, salty, acidic (sour) and bitter. In fact, they are not related to each other, and acidity cannot be determined by tasting as a parameter of quality.

2- Because industrially refined olive oils have labels with the degree of acidityeven though the acidity is considered a quality parameter solely for extra-virgin olive oils. Therefore, the higher the quantity of olive oil in refined oil, the lesser will be the acidity and flavour becauseolive oils have neither acidity nor taste. In brief, low acidity is not a sufficient criterion on its own to judge the quality of olive oil.

Maximum Acidity Levels by the Type of Olive Oil:

Acidity level is one of the main parameters used to classify the quality of virgin olive oils of diverse types:

Extra Virgin olive oil: Acidity should be equal to or less than 0,8º.

Virgin olive oil:Acidity should be equal to or less than 2º.

All olive oils with acidity above 2º are considered lampante olive oil, i.e., refined olive oil. Refined olive oil is not suitable for direct consumption. Refined oils do not have taste and odour. In general, they are recommended for cooking.

Criteria for Selection of Olive Oil:

It is important to select natural and additive-free products while selecting tasty olive oil. The vitamins, phenolic compounds that are beneficial for our health are kept at the highest level in premium olive oils. One of the olive oils we recommend to you isYIVA Natural Virgin Early Harvest Cold Pressed olive oil. This olive oil is obtained from Domat, Tekir that are indigenous varieties in our region and Edremit variety olives. These olives are pressed when they are still green polyphenol valueis remarkably high and the bitterness and the burning sensation on the palate is felt intensively.

Black Table Olives:

Olives are the only stone fruit that cannot be eaten straight from the branch. This is caused by a phenolic substance called "oleuropein", which is found only in olives among all fruits in the world, giving the bitter flavour to olives.

The series of processes applied to remove this phenolic substance called oleuropein that gives the bitter flavour to olives, from the body of olives includes table olive processing techniques. Oleuropein is also considered as a particularly important substance for human health. Even though this substance is removed from the olive fruit during the processing of table olives, or it is broken down and transformed into other substances, it is reported by researchers that the amount remaining in the olive fruit is sufficient for human health.

We remove the bitterness from the olives by using the rolling method while fermenting the olives completely naturally. This process takes 4-6 months.
