A word in advance:
EVOO stands for 'Extra Virgin Olive Oil' in English. Translated into Spanish, the abbreviation is AOVE or 'Aceite de Oliva Virgen Extra'.
On the label of our bottles you may find AOVE, but EVOO means the same.
AOVE or EVOO is the highest quality olive oil available and is produced through mechanical extraction without the use of chemicals or excessive heat. In Spain, the 'extra virgin' and 'virgin' categories are protected by very strict laws, similar to the laws for wine and sherry.
The best biological grown olives are used and are not sprayed. There is a QR-code on our bottles, which provides access to additional information on our site regarding origin, production date and much more.

The harvest date and production date should be very close together, preferably within 24 hours. The olives should be as fresh as possible before pressing to get a high quality oil.

Early harvest
An early harvest yields spicy olive oil, which is used natural cold food, like in salads. The spicy taste is important here. A late harvest of more mature olives has a rounder, less tasteful flavour. Both oils you can use for salad dressings, backing and marinades. It is a myth you cannot use an early oil for backing. But .... as always, it is a matter of taste.

Upon tasting, the olive oil is dense and smooth. Barely filtered, it retains the flavor of the olives and green grass. A truly authentic oil, pressed to perfection. Its taste and aroma are reminiscent of freshly cut grass. Upon swallowing, the peppery flavor of the Verdiales olive emerges. Its light golden-green color harmonizes beautifully with this oil. We are very pleased with it.
