Use the social feed to share updates directly with visitors to your producer page. Posts are displayed in chronological order and are a great way to highlight harvest milestones, new releases or upcoming events.

Each post includes a title and body text, with the option to add an image for greater impact. Posts can be edited or deleted whenever needed.

Winner’s Comment

If your oils have been recognized in this year's guide, you can add a personal comment to appear alongside your awards. This is your opportunity to thank your team and share your winning philosophy.

Your comment includes the quote itself along with author attribution, helping visitors connect your words to the people behind the work.

Messages

When visitors contact you through the form on your producer page, their messages are delivered directly to your dashboard and to your email inbox. You can read, reply to and manage these inquiries, with responses sent by email to the sender.

You can enable or disable the contact form at any time in your dashboard settings. When it’s turned off, the contact option will no longer appear on your public page.

Contact Settings

In the settings area, you control whether visitors can reach you through your producer page. Simply toggle Enable Contact Form on or off. Your preference is saved automatically, so you only need to set it once.

The NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition is the largest and most prestigious olive oil quality contest. Its annual list of award winners is the authoritative guide to the year's best olive oil brands and the dedicated producers who craft them.

If you are a journalist who would like help interpreting the results, reaching out to award-winning producers or obtaining images, we are ready to assist you.

Please use the form to submit your inquiry. A member of our support team will get right back to you.

The registration fee is (USD) $400 for each brand entered.

Each entered oil is a brand. So, for example, if you would like to participate with an Arbequina and a Picual, you will need to register two brands. The same goes for different blends.

The cost to ship your sample(s) depends on the origin and courier.

See the Olive Oil Times World Ranking data on entries and success rates

The 1,169 samples analyzed in the eleventh edition of the NYIOOC represent high-quality extra virgin olive oil brands from 30 countries. Each entry is evaluated on its own merits and attributed a score within an established protocol that ensures the accuracy and consistency of results, year after year.

More participating producers now understand the quality characteristics necessary to achieve the industry's highest award and have optimized production processes accordingly. Meanwhile, many unsuccessful in earlier editions have discontinued their quest, resulting in a higher overall success rate through attrition.

The steady rise in the number of award-winning brands is a testament to the commitment of producers in every region to providing an outstanding product for everyone.

It is not uncommon for a brand to win an award in some other competition, or receive excellent third-party testing reports, and fail to win in the NYIOOC.

When a sample fails to win an award, it means the judging panel did not score the oil in the award range. It does not necessarily mean the oil is of poor quality.

The NYIOOC judges are trained to identify and evaluate the positive and negative attributes (defects) in olive oil samples at the time of tasting.

The defects are often subtle, but their presence suggests that there is a step in the production process that could be improved.

When negative attributes are observed by the panel, they are noted on the brand's page in Producer Tools along with some likely causes and ways to address them.

If no defects are noted, and the brand failed to win an award, it means the judges did not observe sufficient degrees of olfactory and gustatory quality characteristics to warrant an award-level score.

All results are verified and final. We do not publicly reveal non-winning brands and details of the individual judges' findings are not disclosed. For more information, see the NYIOOC Terms and Conditions.

The Olive Oil Times Education Lab offers a three-part video series in English with Italian and Spanish subtitles, How to Produce an Award-Winning Olive Oil, which might help identify the areas where your production processes could be improved. If you submitted a non-winning brand and would like a free pass to the video series, please contact the NYIOOC support team.

Olive Oil Negative Attributes

• Maintaining a Clear History: Consistent information allows NYIOOC to track your participation history effectively. This includes past entries, awards received, and overall performance. This history can be valuable for recognizing your achievements and identifying areas for improvement.
• Building a Strong Brand Identity: Using the same company information ensures that your brand is consistently represented across all NYIOOC records. This helps build brand recognition and credibility.
• Facilitating Communication: Consistent information streamlines communication between you and NYIOOC. It ensures that any updates, notifications, or inquiries are directed to the correct contact information, preventing delays or misunderstandings.
• Simplifying the Entry Process: Using the same login details simplifies the entry process. You won't have to re-enter basic information each time, saving you time and effort.

Maintaining consistency contributes to a more efficient and rewarding NYIOOC experience.

Use the same Producer Tools account

Do not create a new Producer Tools account for the same company. Doing so will disrupt your company's winning record. If you can't remember your login credentials, try the password reset. To change your account's login email, contact our support team.

Only add new producers that have never participated

Do not add a new producer unless your new brand is made by an entity that has not previously participated. To change a producer's name, location or other details, contact the NYIOOC support team.

Re-enter your brand instead of adding a new one

To maintain your history on the Official Guide and Olive Oil Times World Ranking, re-enter the same brand instead of creating a new one.

Create a new brand only if it has never been entered into the competition.

Producers may only affix award labels to winning brands in a winning year. So, for example, you cannot attach a 2022 Gold Award sticker to oil from the 2021 or 2023 harvest.

Alteration, modification or digital manipulation of NYIOOC logos, award artwork, seals, certificates or other designs are not allowed. Any other use of the NYIOOC award logos or other NYIOOC intellectual property is strictly prohibited.

Duties, taxes and other fees may be imposed in your country for trophies and stickers. NYIOOC is not responsible for any fees levied on award shipments.

For more information on award usage, please see our terms and conditions.

Submitted entries are immediately masked, coded and stored at 14.0-16.5°C (57.2-59.0°F) under 100% UV-free lighting until they are analyzed.

It can take a day or two after the package is delivered to be recorded in the system.

Generic email addresses such as info@ or contact@ do not work well with our system. Do not use @hotmail addresses.
