Prima Mensa, our most exclusive Gourmet Oil
Prima Mensa Extra Virgin Olive Oil is our most exclusive Gourmet oil.
Making a great oil is not easy.
Not even the decision to make a great Oil is easy.
Any olive farmer can decide to make oil. Normally, it belongs to a Cooperative, which grinds the olives of all its members and sells 99% of its production in bulk. To who? To large manufacturers that mix oils of different qualities, to other countries such as Italy or Greece that do the same etc.
The brave have their own Oil Mill or their own Brand. They are Extra Virgin Olive Oils with an average yield of 22%, that is, 22 kilos of Oil are extracted from every 100 kilos of olives. The Olive is harvested at an advanced degree of maturation to achieve the maximum possible yield.
The bravest make a more careful Extra Virgin Olive Oil, selecting an optimal maturation time to achieve great quality, with an average yield of 16-17%. This is the case of Arraigo, a Premium Oil with an incredible flavour.
And the crazy ones, like the farmers of Olivar de San Miguel, decide to make the best Extra Virgin Olive Oil they can make:
- They select the olives from the best area of their olive grove.
- They are harvested at the optimum moment of maturation in terms of quality, in the maturation phase. This maturation phase only lasts a week and the oil yield of the olive is only 12%, that is, they obtain almost half less oil than the first ones.
- They take care of every last detail throughout the process: grinding, decanting, storage, packaging…
And, as if this were not enough, they leave us the Oil at bulk price.
Why? you might wonder…
For love. For love of their land, for love of the most precious of our agricultural products, because they have been making oil for 4 generations that nobody values, except abroad…
That Oil, Prima Mensa, now arrives at your table. It doesn’t come from any big distribution chain, nor has it gone through 4 or 5 places until it is sold.
It is simply the best Olive Juice, which Olivar de San Miguel has given us to take home.
We do not sell it to anyone else. Not supermarkets, nor department stores, nor chains…
This is why Prima Mensa is the Best and Purest Extra Virgin Olive Oil that can be made,not even a penny of the price is dedicated for anything else.
Simple, transparent and pure. From Olivar de San Miguel to your table.
Thank you once again and a thousand times more to the farmers of Olivar de San Miguel. Without your faith and love, this would never have been possible!
