The PDO Priego de Córdoba is located in the very heart of Andalusia, partly in the Sierras Subbéticas Natural Park and has a very small crop extension, hardly 30.000 hectares of centennial olive trees. These features, together with a unique microclimate, allow obtaining exclusive olive oils of extraordinary quality that are internationally recognized, as it happens with Venta del Barón. The olive pickers in the Sierra de Priego go ahead of time to collect the best selection of green olives at the beginning of the season. The olives are then cold pressed and the best juice selected according to the strict rules of the PDO Priego de Córdoba. It takes less than 15 picking until the pressing, so the genuine aroma of the olives is preserved. The result is a luminous oil, representing just 10% of what could have been produced through other methods. It is the first juice, flower of all oils, and will rest during 15 days to decant and become a real “Oleum ex Albis” Taste: It has as its main ingredient a special selection the first green Hojiblanca and Picuda olive varieties of each season. It is an extra virgin olive oil with intense fruitiness with grassy notes, mint, almond Shell, bananas and apple. Hints of tomatoes and artichoke plants. On the tongue, it is sweet, slightly bitter and progressively spicy. It is a very complex oil, balanced and harmonious in all its tastes and aromas.
