Harvest
The hand-picked olives are delivered within 24 hours to the oil
mill where the pressing takes place. Modern Oil Presses are
employed to extract oil in the age old traditional way. This tried
and tested technique produces the lightest, most fragrant and
irresistible of oils. In terms of quantity, as a result of the choice to
produce an Oil of excellence, production stands at approximately
800 to 1.000 litres.
The organic choice
From its beginnings in 1997, the enterprise decided on the
Organic route. To achieve this, an agronomist was hired, his
advice, along with the support of "ICEA", a nationally acclaimed
and renowned certification agency, enabled the setting up of a
fully certified organic enterprise.
Since the Enterprise's beginnings, professional experts have
been involved in the cultivation of the land. They have advised
on the most suitable plants for the terrain in question and have
followed the planting process. The ad hoc drip irrigation system
has helped both the Arboreal and Horticultural plants to flourish.
