Months should be ok, as long as it's in a dark bottle, or has been kept in a dark place... light degenerates olive oil.. give it a good sniff.. if theres no trace of a pungently acrid smell.. you're good! It should barely smell if it is still good. If you're still unsure, taste it.. you know what olive oil should taste like.. again, any trace of bitter, and I would pass on it.How long is olive oil good for?
the smell should be the first indicator that the oil is no longer edible. the colour also changes. make sure to keep it in a dark bottle to protect it.
It should be good for at least 6 months or so.
It is good until it stops smelling good.
