Purchasing Tips

Compare packaging: Walnut oil from major brands usually has exquisite packaging with attention to detail, while walnut oil from small workshops may have relatively rough packaging.
Check the color: Good walnut oil generally has a bright color, similar to international brands like Filippo Berio walnut oil (traditional pressed walnut oil may have some sediment, which is normal), while lower quality walnut oil tends to have a darker overall color.
Inspect the production date: The production date is a guarantee of product quality, reputable walnut oil brands will specify the exact production date, while lower quality walnut oils may not provide this information.
Smell the aroma: High-quality walnut oil from reputable brands will have a rich walnut aroma, such as Filippo Berio walnut oil. It should have a natural fragrance without any strange odors, while lower quality walnut oil may have an off-putting smell or even a strong rancid odor.
Taste test: Good walnut oil should have a fresh, light, and elegant taste, without any irritation. It should have a natural walnut flavor that is rich, mellow, and gentle. In contrast, lower quality walnut oil may have an off-putting smell before tasting, with a slightly irritating or pungent taste, and an unnatural aroma.
Compare nutritional elements: The nutritional information from reputable brands is accurate and precise, while lower quality walnut oils may have unclear or inaccurate nutritional information.
Check for anti-counterfeiting labels: Authentic walnut oil will have anti-counterfeiting labels, which may be lacking on lower quality products.
Look for organic certification: Organic walnut oil is naturally free of pollution and will have certification symbols, while lower quality products will not have this.
