| Arbequina Olive
It originates from Majorca, from where it moved to
Catalunya, became acclimated in Arberca (in the Les Garrigues region) from
where it gets its name.
It is an oil for lovers of exotic and sensorial
flavours, with an almond flavour, very sweet and pleasant, without leaving
any bitterness. Its aroma is reminiscent of wild and garden fruits, and in
our case of bananas.
It is a small tree, which resists cold well,
with very strong roots. Its fruit is more rounded (rather than elongated),
ripens early, with greenish/violet shiny leaves, and produces a very high
quality oil. It is a very good accompaniment to both fresh and cooked
vegetables and fish

Cornicabra Olive
It originates from Mora de Toledo. Its name
comes from the characteristic horn shape of its fruit. It is also called
cornezuelo. It is very resistant to drought, freezing and winter cold. Upon
maturation it is characterised by its intense purplish color.
It is an oil of exceptional quality. Its color
ranges from golden yellow to intense green tones.
They are fruity, aromatic oils, with qualities
between bitter and spicy. Cornicabra oils have a notable balance. Hints of
almond and apple stand out accompanied by a symphony of aromas and flavors
which are reminiscent of fresh fruit, with very little bitterness and
spiciness which makes them ideal for use uncooked in salads, dressings and
sauces. They are also very appropriate for frying, as they go a long way
and last longer
