More information

The Extra Virgin Olive Oil 'La Chinata' is the juice of olives harvested in the Sierra de Gata region, in the northwest of the province of Cáceres. In this area, we only collect those fruits that have the properties we consider essential to obtain a very high quality Extra Virgin olive oil. The olives must be at their optimal ripeness, clean, healthy, and without any apparent external defects.

Only through this selection system can we guarantee our customers an Extra Virgin olive oil of which we are completely sure in terms of quality.

Our Extra Virgin Olive Oil is fundamentally characterized by four factors:

• An intense yellow color with some traces of green.
• A sweet and flat flavor, without the characteristic spiciness or bitterness of oils from southern Spain; therefore, achieving a very pleasant palate that makes tasting these Extra Virgins a real pleasure.
• An aroma of very dense ripe fruit.
• A very high content of fatty acids, which make these Extra Virgins one of the most perfect of all those obtained in the different olive-growing areas of Spain.

We must take into account that, in the Sierra de Gata region, most of the olives are destined for direct consumption, that is, for table olives, which enjoy a well-deserved reputation throughout Spain (the famous "Manzanilla Cacereña" olives). They are highly appreciated for their texture and flavor, making them very pleasant to the palate.

The oil is obtained from olives that, due to their small size, cannot be used for direct consumption, so it can be deduced that the Extra Virgin oil obtained from these fruits maintains all its most characteristic virtues.
