Extra virgin olive oil from Los Villares (Jaén)

Los Villares, located in the foothills of the Sierra Sur mountains just a few kilometers from the capital of Jaén, is a town with a strong olive-growing tradition. Surrounded by a mid-mountain landscape covered in olive groves, this enclave combines ideal climatic and geographical conditions for the production of high-quality extra virgin olive oil .

With more than 6,500 hectares of olive groves and an estimated population of more than 800,000 olive trees , Los Villares bases a large part of its local economy on olive cultivation. The predominant variety is Picual , which produces full-bodied oils with an intense, green fruity flavor and excellent stability.

The altitude and cool temperatures of the area favor slower fruit ripening, resulting in EVOOs with a high concentration of natural antioxidants and a balanced sensory profile. In this section, we offer a carefully curated selection of oils produced in Los Villares, the result of the work of cooperatives and local producers who keep the olive-growing tradition alive, committed to quality, sustainability, and respect for the land.
