Harvesting

Harvest time starts mid-November and lasts no longer than 3 weeks. The Olives picked by hand fall onto nets placed under the trees where they are gathered, cleaned of all leaves and taken to the press. Here, olives undergo further defoliation and are washed and crushed before the end of the day, no longer than 6 hours after picking. We use continuous centrifugation using a two phase-system at a temperature not exceeding 27°C/80°F degrees, according to EU regulations for cold extraction

Milling

We use the cold extraction process to preserve the full complex range of sensory and nutritional qualities; allowing the complete flavor of the olive oil to be appreciated. In this method, no heat or chemicals are administrated to extend or alter the oil.
