You can test your oil at home.
The freezing point of EVOO is 39DegF.
Set your fridge for 37DegF and put a sample of your oil in overnight.
If there is liquid oil present with the frozen olive oil, then you got a special blend!!

Unfortunately, the olive oil counterfeiters are sometimes crafting the fakes to fool the freeze testing. See:
Refrigeration is not reliable in detecting olive oil adulteration

Looks like that might be a myth, at least according to some websites I went to (e.g. http://www.oliveoilsource.com/definition/freezing-point-olive-oil)
Interesting, thanks.
