Oro Del Desierto is made from olives produced in the Tabernas Desert in Almeria in Andulucia. This is one of Europe's few remaining deserts and this one is also famous as the setting for many well known Spaghetti westerns. The environment, with its unique climate and around 3000 hours of sun per year, produces an olive oil with an outstanding taste and aroma qualities. The olives are hand picked at their optimum ripeness. The first oils are produced between the end of October and beginning of November from Arbequina, Hojiblanca and Picual varieties. These oils are stored in 2000 litre deposits where they are analysed and then carefully selected by the master taster and blender in varying quantities and blended to create a superb olive oil with a limited production. With olive oils you might see a parameter described of Free--Acidity. Oro Del Desierto Organic extra virgin olive oil has a maximum acidity of 0.1 degree, the lowest one in the market.
