Our History
Quality that can be proven
Our olive oils have the lowest acidity in the market. Each and every batch of Mueloliva olive oil is chemically analyzed to ensure that the acidity remains extremely low. This is what differentiates us from other brands.
Where Trust & Traceability Thrive
When you choose Mueloliva, you can trust that you're getting top-quality olive oils that are 100% authentic. You'll never have to worry about getting expired or over-processed products, or fake ones. Our oils are pure and free from any artificial preservatives or fillers.
Experience excellence
At Mueloliva, we take great care in selecting the finest olives. These olives are then cold-pressed to create our oils. We only use olives from trees that have been around for thousands of years, so you can be confident that the oil you're consuming is pure and straight from nature. It's natural, healthy and never been tampered with in a lab.
Present in 80 countries
We are one of the major Spanish olive oil exporters, present in 80 countries all over the world.
We are present in the USA and Canada, Central America ans South America, the European Union, the Middle East, and in major Asian countries.
Committed to the environment
We are part of <5% of olive oils mills that do not wash our oil with water. Instead, we decant and filter, thus saving millions of liters of water compared to the methods used by most mills!
Our solar panels provide us with 35% of our energy needs. Our goal is to reach 50% by 2025.
How It's Made
-
Harvest
We go ahead of time to select the first green olives of each campaign at the best possible time, with the objective to harvest a fruit with a unique flavor and aroma.
-
Immediate Transportation
To preserve the freshness and aroma of the fruit, the olives are loaded and transported to the mill immediately. Once there, these are classified, cleaned and ground the same day.
-
Extraction
We extract our olive oils through a system that does not require heat or water application during the process, ensuring that our oils retain their natrual attributes.
-
Bottling
We complete the bottling process in our mill, thus eliminating any risk in the transport of goods.
