Arraigo Unfiltered Bag in Box

The problem nobody tells you about your olive oil
Every time you open a jerrycan or a bottle, air gets in. And air oxidises the oil: it degrades the polyphenols, dulls the aromas and reduces the very properties that make it special. It's a silent process, but a real one. Your last drop never tastes the same as the first.
Bag in Box eliminates this problem. The inner bag contracts as you use the oil, with no air or light entering at any point. The result: the last drop retains the same flavour, aroma and properties as the first.
Where this oil comes from
Arraigo is born at the Olivar de San Miguel, on the lands of Puente Genil (Córdoba), where Migue's family — 4th generation olive growers — cultivates a blend of Hojiblanca, Picual and Picuda olives. The olives are hand-harvested from the tree, transported clean to the mill and turned into juice in under 24 hours, using only mechanical processes and at ambient temperature.
By leaving it unfiltered, Arraigo retains the natural olive particles in suspension. Those particles are what give it its deep green colour, its silky texture and a flavour you won't find in any industrial oil. Limited production: it takes over 6 kg of olives to yield a single litre (an extraction rate of 16–18%, compared to the usual 20–28%).
Why Bag in Box?
Bag in Box vs. jerrycan or bottle
| Bag in Box | Jerrycan / Bottle | |
|---|---|---|
| Air contact | ✅ Zero: the bag contracts | ❌ Air enters with every opening |
| Light protection | ✅ Total: box + opaque bag | ❌ Partial: depends on the material |
| Flavour over time | ✅ Stays intact | ❌ Degrades with each use |
| Ease of use | ✅ Tap: no drips, no spills | ❌ You pour and reseal |
| Storage space | ✅ Flattens when empty | ❌ Takes up as much space empty as full |
What you'll find when you taste it
Open the tap and the first thing that reaches you is the aroma: intensely green and fruity, with notes of fresh-cut grass and green almond — hallmarks of the Hojiblanca variety. On the palate, the oil is balanced and smooth, with a medium-intense fruitiness that gives way to a gentle bitterness and a light peppery finish in the throat — the two positive attributes the International Olive Council considers a sign of a vibrant, polyphenol-rich oil.
Its texture, slightly denser than a filtered oil, leaves a lingering, enveloping sensation on the palate that turns a simple slice of toast into something you don't want to end. Best enjoyed raw: on toast, in salads, over grilled vegetables, in gazpacho, on carpaccio — any dish where you want the oil to take centre stage.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the oil keep once the Bag in Box is opened?
Much longer than in a jerrycan or bottle. Because no air enters, the oil stays in perfect condition for months. We recommend using it within 4 to 5 months of opening for the best experience, though it will remain excellent beyond that.
Can I transfer the oil to a dispenser?
Yes, you can refill your oil dispenser directly from the tap. We recommend filling it in small amounts so the oil in the dispenser is refreshed regularly and always at its best.
Is it the same oil as Arraigo in the jerrycan?
Exactly the same. Same olive grove, same mill, same harvest. The only difference is the container: Bag in Box offers superior preservation by keeping both air and light out.
How is this different from supermarket Bag in Box oils?
In every way. Supermarket Bag in Box oils typically contain blends from multiple origins, with higher acidity and no information on variety, estate or harvest. Arraigo is a premium single-estate EVOO with an acidity of 0.20 and polyphenols above 250 PPM, bottled and shipped directly from our mill in Puente Genil.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Yes. The outer box is recyclable cardboard. The inner bag goes in the packaging recycling. And once empty, the whole thing flattens down and takes up far less space than empty jerrycans or bottles.
What if I don't like it?
You return it, simple as that. You have a 14-day no-questions-asked returns guarantee. But with over 600 reviews and 96% five-star ratings, that's very unlikely to happen.
