Núñez de Prado
Hand-picked with care from Andalusia, Núñez de Prado is a full-flavored EVOO. It is made up of three varieties of native, organic olives selected for their stability, sweetness and floral aroma. For seven generations, the same family has carefully harvested them at the ideal stage of ripeness. The olives are then crushed using hundred-year-old granite wheels and pressed to extrude the oil. The finished product is of highest quality, with notes of citrus and almond and a fruity, buttery finish.
Where to Find Seven generations of the Núñez de Prado family have dedicated their lives to the production of extraordinary olive oil, and the family’s mill still crushes olives in the traditional way: with granite stones. The family owns four different estates, housing more than 100,000 organic olive trees. The family bought its first mill in 1795, but was mainly focused on wine-making until the phylloxera plague ruined its vineyards. It then turned to making olive oil with a passion that persists today.
