Is this oil refined? I read that refined avocado oil has a 520 degree smoke point. I would like to find a very high smoke point oil.

If you are looking for a very high smoke point oil you should consider peanut (450 F) or safflower oil (510 F). Peanut oil is used for stir fry as the wok needs to be and is best when it's rip roaring hot.

Is the container BPA free?

I contacted the company with this question and here is their answer: Thank you for contacting La Tourangelle Artisan Oils! Our tin cans are made of food-grade tin, or tin-coated steel. They are 100% BPA free and have no interaction with the oil inside. We chose tin instead of glass because oils can be harmed by sunlight and other contaminants through glass, so the tin lengthens the life and the quality of the oil. Please let me know if you have any further questionsBest regards,Sophia JohnsonSales Coordinatorsophia@latourangelle.comTel : +1 (510) 970-9960 ext 100Fax : +1 (510) 970-9964

What's the difference between "cold pressed" and expeller pressed" ? Which is better for nutrition wise?

Expeller pressed is the traditional method that has been used for extracting oils for thousands of years. Cold pressed is expeller pressed in a controlled climate so that the temperature doesn't rise above 120°, or something close to that, depending on the source. It isn't a regulated term in the USA. Expeller pressed does not control what ever heat is generated by the pressure from the pressing.Refined oil, using applied heat and or chemicals, is the type you want to avoid. All of La Tourangelle oils are cold pressed or expeller pressed, with no refining.

Is this free of pesticides? I want to use it for cooking.

I don't know if it is pesticide free, but you definitely can use it for cooking. I use mine to make the best mayonnaise. I think mayo made with extra virgin olive oil is too strong; avocado oil gives mayo a light, fresh taste. You may use avocado oil over medium high heat. Smoke point is 375 degrees F.
