Esporāo Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Harvest

The 2023 agricultural year was a hot, dry year overall. Despite this,
in winter the temperature was mild and there was high
precipitation. In spring, higher temperatures affected flowering,
which led to significant drops in production. The harvest started
earlier, in the beginning of October and took place until December,
while plentiful rains replenished the soil’s water reserves of the rain-
fed olive groves.

Olive Processing

Shortly after harvest, the olives are received and separated by variety at
the Esporão mill, where cold extraction immediately begins at room
temperatures no higher than 24°C (75°F). The fruit is quickly milled
and then run through a heat exchanger, a system that shortens
extraction time and preserves the aromas of this olive oil. The paste is
centrifuged, and the pomace is mechanically separated from the olive
oil that is immediately filtered and packaged.
