PRODUCTIVE PROCESS

Harvest

The time of collection is the end of a process that lasts throughout the year. Our olive trees are treated with the greatest dedication. Combining experience and innovation, our olive growing practices pay special attention to felling, irrigation and the nutrients that the tree needs to provide us with the best possible fruit.

Thus, at the end of October or the beginning of November, the olive campaign begins: an early harvest together with an optimal state of maturity are some of the most important aspects to produce quality olive oil.

Elaboration

In the mill , the olive cleaning process begins , removing the leaves and small stems. Once clean, it is deposited in stainless steel hoppers for its immediate grinding .

The purpose of beating is to form larger oil droplets by adding smaller droplets. After this process, the paste obtained is physically centrifuged. The different density of the elements of this mass makes it possible that, thanks to the centrifugal force, the lighter ones (oil) remain inside the centrifuge and the heavier ones (alperujo) are dragged to the outside.

In our Mediterranean culture it is a staple in the diet, both raw and hot, and an excellent preservative for some foods.

Olive Oil and Health

The health benefits of olive oil have been known since ancient times. Its positive effects on our health are many , being an element widely used in traditional medicine for its therapeutic properties, which modern science already recognizes today.

The particular properties of each oil are basically determined by the variety of olive from which they come. The Picual olive variety is the queen of the Jaén olive grove and the oil that is extra from it is gradually positioning itself in the quality market of EVOOs (Extra Virgin Olive Oil) as the excellent product that it is. One of its most important advantages is its stability against oxidation, preserving its attributes for a longer period of time and thus being an excellent natural preservative.
