Valderrama’s organic Hojiblanca extra virgin olive oil is the winner of the Gold Award and was deemed the “World’s Best Olive Oil” by North Hemisphere Organic Monovarietal Medium for three consecutive years (2014-2015-2016). It’s made only of Hojiblanca olives, mainly cultivated in the Andalucia region, and has a rich texture and a combination of fruity & grassy aromas with notes of green tomatoes and herbs. The medium pungency of olive leaf and the perfect balance of sweet and bitter flavors make this olive oil a great addition to a myriad of dishes!
Spain is responsible for half of the world’s olive oil production. Spanish EVOO, much like the olives themselves, is distinctly fruity and nutty in flavor, with less bitter undertones compared to regular olive oil. These differences are dictated by the temperate climate of the Spanish Mediterranean region where most of its olives are grown. You can find plenty of stunning Spanish olive oils in our varied selection!
Valderrama is a family-owned brand that started in 1920 with the founding of an olive oil factory in Montilla. It specializes in producing high-quality Spanish EVOO using the revolutionary process of extraction that Jose Valderrama devised with the help of a mechanic. The process shortens the time period between harvesting and extraction down to 45 minutes, opening a whole new realm of possibilities of preserving flavors, nutrients, and aroma!
Organic Hojiblanca EVOO by Valderrama will make a stunning addition to bluefish dishes, game meat, and turkey, as well as stews, Spanish omelet, and tomato salads! There are also plenty of other intriguing combinations to be found in our online Spanish grocery store!
