The Olive grove

Our farm ‘Las Valdesas’ is located in the geographical center of Andalusia, in the countryside south of Cordoba, in the town of Puente Genil.

Five types of olives are grown in our own olive grove: Arbequina, Hojiblanca, Picual, Manzanillo and Frantoio.

The grove is part of an Integrated Production Group, which regulates agriculture by limiting the use of fertilizers and pesticides, and allows us to develop a healthier and more natural olive oil, while practicing an environmentally friendly way of farming.

At ‘Las Valdesas’ we pick our olives before they mature to obtain a high quality fruity olive oil. Since each variety has a different optimal timing of maturation, we harvest each variety at its premium.

Harvesting is done solely from olives still in the trees, and no olives are picked from the ground, thus ensuring the good condition of the fruit.

Therefore, at ‘Las Valdesas’ we think we make one of the best extra virgin olive oils from Andalusia.

In our videos you can see the steps of oil processing.
