EU Olive Oil: Safety and Quality You Can Trust

Show transcript

First of all, we are farmers.

We take care of our olive trees orchards.

We nourish them, we irrigate them,

we control all the ecosystem where we are based.

Regulations are year after year increasing.

We are receiving continuously auditors, external controls,

so we are learning every day how to improve

and to do things better day after day.

I mean, it's easy to make olive oil.

It's not easy to make an extraordinary

and a high-quality olive oil.

We are very strict and we have implemented

so huge amount of internal regulations

to search the maximum quality of our product.

We certainly know exactly each day

what plot we are collecting,

the different trees that we have been harvesting,

and, of course, when those olives arrive to the mill.

When we mill them, what day, what hour, what temperature,

how many minutes we have been grinding

in the malaxing machine, the paste,

and when we have filtered this olive oil

and in what deposit we have stored

the extra virgin olive oil.

So traceability is perfect.

We have reached the highest quality

within the last 2,000 years.
