What was on the label (sometimes you find a blend listed)? Is there a preservative of some kind, even Vit E in it? - it has a short shelf life. Where manufactured or where is the source? Yes, this is a wonderful B&B oil but make sure that if you buy in volume, you know what you are using it for as it cannot sit long. I buy it mainly for my oatmeal facial bars so it I make big batches so it does not sit. HTH!
