Abstract

The aim of this work is to show the quality of virgin olive oil of the Oblica variety produced in 2021
presented by results of chemical and sensory analyzes at manifestation "Days of Young Olive Oil in
Dalmatia". Considering the localities where the oil samples were taken we can speak of oils of the
Oblica variety from the Dalmatian growing area.
Chemical analysis determined the basic chemical indicators of quality: peroxide number (PB)
expressed in mEq O2 / kg and the proportion of free fatty acids (FFA) in % expressed as oleic acid.
Sensory analysis were taken from association "Olea" in Šibenik. The results of the chemical and
sensory analysis for each individual sample were numerically expressed as a unique rating that ranked
all incoming samples and singled out the best olive oils. The total points for extra virgin olive oil of
the Oblica variety ranged from 72.35 % to 96.45 % and covered 84 % of all oil samples received.
The obtained oil results show that these are high quality extra virgin and extra virgin olive oils, which
points to the fact that the oils were obtained from optimally ripe and healthy fruits and that the
processing was done very soon after harvesting. The sensory evaluation of the samples had an
extremely important influence on the final placement of the oil.
