The 2016 London international competitions will take place on the 9th-10th of April and are split into two categories, namely; The 8th ARISTION 2016, Quality awards of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and The 8th ARISTION 2016, Packaging awards of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

The purpose of these competitions is to inform olive-growers, oil producers, oil-pressers, processors and retailers, who distribute their standardized products legally, to preserve and to perfect the quality of their branded product by promoting high quality olive oil in every aspect of the spectrum of its use and consumption. – London IOOC
The competitions also encourages knowledge and education of olive oil products with an emphasis on the health benefits of consuming olive oil and the Mediterranean diet to new consumers as well as to professionals in the culinary fields.
The olive oil samples that will participate in the competition will be submitted anonymously and properly coded for a blind organoleptic tasting by a committee, which consists of a head-taster president and the tasters-judges, members of the organoleptic committee. The Committee will be using a suitable evaluation form, based on that of the Mario Solinas competition organised every year by the International Olive Council, rating each sample with a separate and final total grade, on a 0-100 scale.
