3 Reasons why you should try Hemp Flavoured Olive Oil

Let us clarify from the outset: it’s obtained by cold-pressing the seeds of the Cannabis Sativa plant, which does NOT contain psychoactive cannabinoids.

CBD is only contained in the flowers of the plant. 

Here are 3 reasons why you will regret not having tried Hemp-flavoured Extra Virgin Olive Oil before: 

1- Hemp seeds are one of the plant foods with the highest amounts of nutrients. Rich in omega 6 and omega 3, they strengthen the immune, hormonal and nervous systems. They’re an unparalleled source of well-being!

2- Gives an extra touch of flavour to your recipes! Its flavour is reminiscent of hazelnuts and it’s perfect as a raw dressing for vegetables and salads, to enrich fruit smoothies or to prepare a pinzimonio and pasta sauces. 

BUT, you must not use it for cooking or frying because it deteriorates easily and you must store it in the refrigerator after opening.

3- Discover a unique oil! This is no ordinary hemp oil. Terracuza makes a superior version by mixing Sardinian olives with hemp seeds to produce a delicious hemp-flavoured extra virgin olive oil.
