Each year the label changes paying tribute to a new aspect of the production process with this release acting as an homage to the owls who fly down from the Sierra Morena to hunt birds and insect among the olive groves. One of the freshest EVOOs we’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting you almost want to pour it into a wine glass and sip it. Drizzle it over dishes as a finishing touch worthy of a top chef.

When you think of olive oil the mind often wanders to the gnarled groves of Italy and Greece. But when it comes to this golden nectar Spain creates three times as much as those two combined. And 70% of that production comes from Jaén in Andalusia – east of Córdoba and north of Granada – making it the world’s most important olive region.
