World best Olive Oil?

World best olive oil?

The olive oil which is used in our Total oil, Vegan oil and KIDs oil is produced of Oro del Desierto. The olive farmer, Rafael with his family, works according to strict ecological guidelinesolive. His excellent olive oil is winning top-awards on a regular basis. We feel proud that we are allowed to use this valued olive oil in our products. Just the best is good enough. 

The olive groves are located in a small valley in Tabernas (Almería) in southern Spain near Málaga, where there are more than 3000 hours of sunshine per year and the dry, stable climate leads to this special product. The geographical location is also unique, as it is irrigated directly from the mountain range (Sierra Nevada). 

“Oro del Desierto” is not only organic and rich in polyphenols, it also tastes fantastic – with a slight hint of pepper, like all good olive oils. 

The olives are pressed immediately after the harvest, typically within 2 hours.

Health benefits of olive oil confirmed in scientific studies  

Olive oil has an important role in nutritional philosophies. Sevaral scientific studies have confirmed the health benefits of ragular intake of olive oil. And yet, not all olive oil is the same.

A high quality olive oil is characterized by many factors.
First, organic farming guarantees a management system aimed at obtaining food of the highest quality, respecting the environment and preserving the fertility of the soil, without working chemical products. Furthermore, the time from harvest to pressing should be low, at best within the same day. Likewise, short time from harvest to pressing guarantees a higher content of polyphenols (antioxidants). The more polyphenols in the oil are, the better the oil contributes to the protection against free radicals.

Last but not least, a good olive oil should of course taste good.
