We constantly monitor their state of health and their needs in order to obtain olives of optimum quality. <\/p>\n<p>A few weeks before the harvest, we analyze samples from the different farms to choose the ones with the best fruit, which we will use to produce our oil. We harvest the olives early (in October or November), which allows us to produce higher quality AOVEs, with more intense aromas and flavors. These early harvest oils are also superior in their physico-chemical composition, with a higher presence of polyphenols, which are substances where the antioxidant properties of olive oil reside, and less acidity and peroxides.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1522\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Harvest<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1522\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1522\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>Early oils sacrifice productivity: ten kilograms of olives may be needed to produce one kilogram of early oil, while five or even fewer kilograms of olives are sufficient for a normal or late harvest oil.<\/p>\n<p>For the oil to be of high quality, it is important that the olives are harvested directly from the tree, without coming into contact with the ground (known as &#8220;flying&#8221; olives). In our case, we ensure this by using state-of-the-art harvesters that pick the olives from the tree without damaging the olive tree. <\/p>\n<p>We harvest them at the moment when they offer us the maximum aroma and flavor, we immediately transfer them to the oil mill and carry out the cold extraction with the most advanced technology so that the oil preserves all its properties.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1523\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Milling<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1523\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1523\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>Once the olives are separated from the tree, they begin to lose their qualities, which is why the journey to the mill must be short and the milling process immediate. At Castillo de Monteagudo we mill our olives just ten minutes away from the farms. In addition, we transport the olives in small boxes to avoid crushing, so they arrive at the mill freshly harvested and in perfect condition.  <\/p>\n<p>There they are ground in a modern stone mill that allows the oil to retain all its qualities. Subsequently, they move on to the blending, which is done by controlling the temperature below 27 degrees to avoid the loss of aromas. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div

EVOO 2024 \u2013 ARBEQUINA VARIETY.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A <strong>warm spring with irregular rainfall <\/strong>supported abundant flowering. Two severe hailstorms in June and July damaged a significant portion of the newly set fruit, notably <strong>reducing final yields<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The trees that retained part of their crop benefited from reduced competition among fruits, producing olives with higher oil concentration and more defined sensory attributes. High temperatures at the end of summer and throughout autumn accelerated ripening.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Harvesting took place between October 23 and 30, with temperatures ranging from 8 to 21\u00b0C.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soft green in color, clean and bright. On the nose, it shows aromas of fresh grass, green fruit and banana, with subtle almond notes and light hints of tomato and artichoke. On the palate it is delicate and very well balanced, with an elegant, silky texture, well-defined structure, and medium persistence.  <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This oil is well suited to preparations that benefit from a <strong>mild and harmonious profile<\/strong>. It complements steamed or lightly grilled vegetables, white fish and shellfish, as well as cold seafood dishes and fresh salads. It is also suitable for simple uses such as <strong>toasted bread with tomato<\/strong>, and its gentle character makes it appropriate for baking and pastry, either to accompany or as a substitute of butter. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8209dab elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"8209dab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/castillodemonteagudo.com\/en\/comprar\/extra-virgin-olive-oil-6-bottles-box-500ml\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-cart-plus\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Buy now<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b2c711b\" data-id=\"b2c711b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e5aa9d0 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-jet-hotspots\" data-id=\"e5aa9d0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"jet-hotspots.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"jet-hotspots jet-hotspots__hotspots-pulse-animation\" data-settings=\"{&quot;tooltipPlacement&quot;:&quot;top&quot;,&quot;tooltipArrow&quot;:true,&quot;tooltipTrigger&quot;:&quot;mouseenter&quot;,&quot;tooltipShowOnInit&quot;:false,&quot;tooltipShowDuration&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;ms&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:500,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;tooltipHideDuration&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;ms&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:300,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;tooltipDelay&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;ms&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:0,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;tooltipDistance&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:15,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;tooltipAnimation&quot;:&quot;fade&quot;,&quot;tooltipInteractive&quot;:false}\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"jet-hotspots__inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"1191\" src=\"https:\/\/castillodemonteagudo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/botellax1.webp\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-14372\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"jet-hotspots__container\"><div id=\"jet-hotspot-2401\" class=\"jet-hotspots__item\" data-jet-tooltip-content=\"{&quot;content&quot;:&quot;El aceite tiene tres enemigos que provocan y aceleran su decadencia: el aire, la luz y el calor.
