Spanish olive oils

Spain occupies a prominent place as the world’s leading producer and exporter of EVOO (Aceite de Oliva Virgen Extra – Extra Virgin Olive Oil). Our great diversity of olive varieties has given rise to a range of unique olive oils in the world, and this factor, coupled with the latest technologies and most modern development processes, results in the highest quality oils.

Its high content in monounsaturated fatty acids makes olive oil a unique food. Virgin and extra-virgin olive oils also provide natural antioxidants (olive oil polyphenols and vitamin E). For these reasons, it is considered to be the healthiest food by medical science.
