Question 1

when was produced? and how much Phenol in it?

Accepted Answer

My bottle was produced in 2011, with an expiration of 1/15/2014. Although the label does not state the amount of phenols this oil contains, it does have a distinct bitterness, which is an indication of high levels of phenols. This is a good thing, since phenols provide desirable anti-oxidant effects.
