Collection

This 100% Picual Extra Virgin Olive Oil is harvested from only 5 hectares during the month of November 2025, the optimum moment to obtain a green fruit of maximum aromatic expression. Harvesting is carried out with carefully controlled mechanical means, preventing the olives from coming into contact with the ground. After harvesting, the fruit is quickly transferred to the mill to begin processing in the shortest possible time, thus preserving its natural freshness, aromatic intensity and high polyphenol content. This early harvesting contributes to a greener, more intense and vibrant profile, as well as enhancing its characteristic sharpness and natural stability.

Prepared by

The olives are crushed immediately upon arrival at the mill, which allows the olives to retain their full sensory potential. The extraction is carried out only by mechanical procedures, being a first cold pressed oil, at controlled temperature, which guarantees the maximum preservation of aromas, antioxidants and nutritional properties. Once extracted, the oil is filtered, thus obtaining a clean, bright and stable EVOO. This filtering allows the elimination of small particles in suspension, ensuring greater purity and a more defined aromatic profile. Subsequently, the oil is stored in stainless steel tanks, protected from light and oxygen, preserving its qualities until its final bottling, exclusively in 50 cl. bottles.
