Palacio de los Olivos conquers palates and wins awards

Palacio de los Olivos

Palacio de los Olivos is not just an extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), it’s a gastronomic experience born in the heart of Almagro, a land of volcanoes and olive-growing tradition. This EVOO, awarded as one of the best in the world in its Picual variety, is the result of years of dedication and care in every stage of its production, from the cultivation of the olive trees to the packaging of the final product.

A Treasure Born in the Volcanic Soil of Almagro

Almagro, with its volcanic soil and unique climate, is the perfect setting for growing olive trees that produce olives of exceptional quality. Palacio de los Olivos harnesses the bounty of this land to create a unique EVOO, with an intense and fruity flavor that reflects the passion and care of those who make it.

Varieties that dazzle: Picual and Arbequina

Palacio de los Olivos offers two EVOO varieties that satisfy the most demanding palates:

• Picual: With an intense and fruity flavor, this variety is ideal for eating raw, enhancing the flavor of salads, cheeses, cured meats, and carpaccio. A few drops on toast make a delicious and nutritious breakfast.
• Arbequina: Softer and more delicate, this variety offers notes of fresh artichoke, green apple, green almond, banana, apple, and red berries. It’s perfect for homemade stews and fried foods, adding a special touch to every dish.

A Production Process Pampered to the Detail

The quality of Palacio de los Olivos is no coincidence; it’s the result of a production process that takes care of every detail:

• Harvesting: The olives are harvested at their peak ripeness to ensure their freshness and quality.
• Transportation and Reception: The olives are quickly transported to the mill to prevent spoilage.
• Grinding and Blending: The mill operates at a low speed to avoid increasing the temperature of the olives, and a paddle moves the product while a refrigerator keeps the paste at 27 degrees.
• Cold Extraction: A cold extraction is performed to preserve the nutritional properties and organoleptic properties of EVOO.
• Filtering and Storage: The EVOO is filtered and stored under optimal conditions for its preservation.
• Analysis: Rigorous analyses are performed to ensure the quality and purity of the product.
• Packaging: The EVOO is carefully packaged to preserve its flavor and aroma.

Tips to Enjoy Palacio de los Olivos to the Fullest

• Temperature: To keep EVOO in perfect condition, it is important to keep it at the same temperature at which it is sold, avoiding exposure to temperatures above 23 degrees and to light.
• Cooking: The ideal temperature for cooking with EVOO is between 160 and 190 degrees. Avoid smoking during preheating and do not reuse it more than five times.
• Pairing: Palacio de los Olivos is a versatile EVOO that pairs with a wide variety of foods. Use it to dress salads, cheeses, sausages, carpaccio, toast, stews, fried foods, and preserves.
