Finally, the real south for home.
The liquid gold from Andalusia.
»There are olives and there are Picual and Verdial«, says Fernando Sánchez. His eyes light up. »Both varieties are fruity and just wonderfully harmonious«.
Not far from the Andalusian coast, the wind blows gently over the olive groves that the Sánchez Rodríguez family has farmed for more than a century. It’s the special climate in this area, the perfect soils and the passion that make these olive oil so unique. »Some trees are already more than 200 years old«, explains Fernando.
»Preserving history, working in harmony with nature and making the best of it, that’s our mission«.
Harvested with care and at just the right time, exceptional varieties of olives produce olive oils of the Extra Class. And as with all oils from the Sánchez Rodríguez family, at least 5 kilos of olives are gently cold-pressed and processed into oil for one bottle. Says Fernando, »We conduct a lot of selection, because this allows us to meet our clearly defined quality standards«.
