Olivarera La Purísima

Olivarera La Purísima is located in the province of Cordoba in the town of Priego de Córdoba, in the heart of the Cordoba Sub-Baetic mountains. It was founded in nineteen forty-five as a first category agricultural cooperative society.

Olivarera La Purísima has a little over four hectares of its own traditional olive groves, which give the over nine hundred members an average annual harvest of some fifteen thousand tons of olives of the Picuda, Hojiblanca and Picual varieties, characteristic of the hillside olive groves in the region. These varieties, selected and picked in the traditional way, make this olive oil one of the most highly appreciated in the world.

In Olivarera La Purísima tradition and experience combine to create an exquisite product of the highest quality which can compete with best olive oils on the market. Each year expert tasters select the best of the oil produced which is then reserved for marketing via the “Bajondillo”, “Prados de Olivo” and “El Empiedro” brands. The latter represents the very best extra virgin olive oil, certified and protected by the Priego de Córdoba Designation of Origin.
