Huile d'olive VIERGE EXTRA

Know us better”, we are offering our « 2009 harvest » (essential guarantee of the quality of our oil) for our bottles that are currently available. When the stock of 800 bottles is gone, we will suspend sales until the next harvest.

Unlike wine, oil does not improve with age. Nevertheless, we let the oil rest for 3 months after it is pressed, because when the oil is very young, it has a rather obvious bitterness and a biting flavour. Once it is over this resting phase, the olive delivers the aromas specific to the land and to its variety. As for the oil known as « Mas Plus », remember that we use the « Arbequinas » juice exclusively, (famous for having a very low level of acidity), and whose olive trees are located in Catalan country (lands that produce the best oil in the world).

To sum it all up, we recommend that you only buy an oil whose label bears the year of its production, because it should be consumed within 18 months of its press, and to conserve it in a place that is protected from both light and air : this is why we have chosen for our « Majas » 750ml bottle and for our « Meninas » 100ml bottle a black flask that will allow the oil to conserve its original qualities.

If you choose the « Dama Juana » 5 liter container, keep it in a location that is always protected from light and Cruelly seal it after you fill your bottle for daily use (air is also an element that contributes to the deterioration of the product).

TERRA  CATALANA : producer of the oil « Mas Plus Ultra… translate it as the Mas, very far, over there», has as its only goal to offer a pure 100% natural fruit juice that is neither refined nor filtered.

Our guarantee is to grow and produce without pesticides, without fertilizers, in harmony with nature and the environment. You will find no bar codes on our labels. Our oil is meant to be sold directly to the consumer.

Members of the S.E.A.E. (Sociedad Española de Agricultura Ecológica), we are applying to our land the counsel that it recommends, that is to protect and preserve the life of the soil by allowing it to maintain all of its organic matter, and therefore to fight against the erosion of our soil.
