Casas de Hualdo’s Arbequina Spanish Extra Virgin Olive Oil - 1st Oct 2020
Casas de Hualdo’s extra virgin olive oil of 100%
Arbequina variety separates itself from its peers as an olive oil filled
with aromas and sweet notes, on top of also having a high quantity of natural
antioxidants!
Full of aromas, this EVOO evokes
sensations of artichoke, grass and tomato, giving rise to a harmonious and
perfumed set. This Arbequina
extra virgin olive oil is an excellent pair with mature cheeses, dark leafy
greens and berries, and is equally exceptional as a dipping with balsamic
vinegar!
At 500ml per bottle, Casas de Hualdo’s Arbequina extra
virgin olive oil is packaged in a dark glassed bottle, which limits light
contact and thus conserves the quality of the olive oil.
Casas de Hualdo
Hailing from Castilla–La
Mancha, Spain, Casas de Hualdo’s foray into high-quality extra virgin
olive oil was kickstarted by Francisco Riberas in 1996, in which he started an
ambitious transformation of his farm by planting up to 300,000 olive trees. The
favourable conditions of the area and the painstaking dedication to look after
the expansive crops of olive trees have resulted in a delicate 100% Arbequina
single-variety olive of unique quality.
All of the elements that come into contact with the olives
(and later on, olive oils) are made of stainless steel, specifically designed
to prevent oxidation and heat, and therefore any damage to the olives. Maximum
hygiene conditions are present throughout the entire process and, in just a few
hours, the oil is stored under optimal conservation conditions. Olive
processing is performed under strict temperature controls to obtain the most
aroma and antioxidants, allowing for the preservation of the best properties of
olive oil.
At its core, Casas de Hualdo wishes to contribute to the
improvement of consumers’, producers’, and global health through the production
of excellent and sustainable food. For one, the promotion of biodiversity and
the management of their natural heritage are some of the brand's trademarks.
Casas de Hualdo has also firmly opted for clean energy, installing one of the
biggest solar plants for photovoltaic solar pumping in Spain to irrigate their
crops. Built in 2009, their award-winning mill is integrated within the olive
grove which allows the olives to be milled within 6 hours from the time they
are picked at the furthest trees of the olive grove, while simultaneously
contributing to the clean and sustainable heating system in their facilities.
