We are proud to announce once again, that our new oils have placed very well in this year’s competitions. Since Apollo’s first production 13 years ago, our oils have consistently shown exceptionally well. Reviewing all the awards from past competitions, we found that in the prestigious US competitions our oils have been awarded far more golds than silvers, and been recognized as Best of Class or Best of Show 50% of the time. And that’s not counting top recognitions in various European competitions over the years!
