Well OP, from what i know, there are about 12 labs in California that produce oil through means of super critical C02 extraction and more in col. and wash. Most SCC02 setups cost upwards of $100,000 and are generally used to extract caffeine from coffee grounds. It would be really hard for your average joe to build a decently producing SCC02 extractor on their own, though some people have built small ones(good luck containing 4000+ psi on medium sized unit!). So if it is C02 oil, your friend probably got it from a reputable collective. I have to say though, SCC02 oil is very clean from the get go, and that oil doesn't look right to me with its uneven cloudiness...but i could be very wrong (hard to tell from a picture).
(notice how sappy and unstable it is)
SCC02 is some of the cleanest oil if left unpurged strait out of the extractor, which means 90% of the time its sold in a sappy form. The general safety guidelines at most laboratories now-a-days for butane extracts are >50PPM, so a fully purged and winterized butane extract will have less plant lipids in it than a C02 extract of any type.
This is why you don't really see SCC02 around that often, to have columns big enough to hold more than an ounce at a time, it costs a massive amount of money for the equipment, and its just not better than other forms of extraction. Check out some of these test results, no where near some of the 70-80% shatters made with butane.
Give it a taste OP, if there's any chemically notes, its not C02. If it tastes planty, has a shit load of terps, and goes down super smooth, then its very possible. report back man
