We recommend the LAKONIA Greek extra-grade cold-pressed olive oil that Amway Company sells directly for the Hong Kong market. A 1 liter bottle is more economical than half a liter. It has a fragrant fruit flavor and does not have the pungent taste of ordinary olive oil. Please contact us for details!
