Production:

The olives are transported separated by varieties and received in the Esporão winery in Reguengos de Monsaraz, a few hours after the harvest and are immediately processed.

The extraction begins with the rapid milling of the fruits. Following the milling the resulting pulp is subjected to a beating, with temperature and beat time perfectly controlled in order to allow the oil to escape from the cells of the pulp and to preserve the aromas from each variety and which characterize each oil. The paste goes to the decanter where the olive oil is separated from the olive pomace and the water resulting in an oil still with some moisture and impurities.

The oil is cleaned by centrifugation and is thus ready to be filtered and packaged.

Cold extraction, never surpassing the 27ºC.

Storage: For better preservation of the characteristics of this natural olive oil, it is recommended to keep it in a cool place and protected from light.

The extraction begins with the rapid milling of the fruits.

The paste goes to the decanter where the olive oil is separated from the olive pomace and the water resulting in an oil still with some moisture and impurities.

The oil is cleaned by centrifugation and is immediately filtered and then packed.
