The Factory is placed in the North of Málaga, right in the geographic center of Andalucía, in Sierra de Yeguas location.
It was founded in 1999 thanks to the huge effort made by the local farmers. They all joined to improve their production and, at the same time, to produce an extra virgin olive oil of high quality in order to satisfy the most demanding palate.
The production is unique and limited, which allows a quality controlled milling.
The factory has since its creation a milling line for ecological olives, which makes it possible to have a very complete offer for our customers.
