The family has also bet on Taggiasca and Carlesca, Italian varieties rarely seen in Spain, and looks after them with the same rigour at harvest and in cold extraction. It is a house that looks at the grove with curiosity and patience.

Why 3 PET containers of 5 L
Three containers of 5 L are the pantry format par excellence: 15 L for months of cooking, fewer packs per litre and the ease of buying only once. It suits large families, people who cook every day and small businesses that use oil daily.
Unopened containers are best kept closed, in a cool, dark place. From the container in use, fill a small cruet for the worktop and leave the rest well capped: that way the oil stays as it was on day one.
