Enjoy a healthy start to the New Year 2025! Use EVOO instead of seed oils and animal fats (such as butter, sour cream. Drizzle over salads instead of using refined seed oils. Add to cooked vegetables or pasta. Use as an occasional dip for bread or for breakfast on toast. And on that note we wish you all a wonderful, healthy and joyful 2025🥳💚 #evoo #healthyfood #antioxidants #2025 #healthydiet

It may look like an alien liquid, but it isn't. It is freshly pressed and filtered extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) from the biodynamic oil mill Finca la Torre in Málaga (Spain). Despite the impressive emerald green colour some EVOOs have, colour is not necessarily a sign of quality, as the intensity of the green tones can vary greatly, depending on the type of olive, the time of harvesting and production methods, among other factors. A key sign of quality is the beautiful transparency and brilliance of the "olive juice", which indicates that the EVOO has been filtered, leaving no traces or sediments that could ferment and turn the juice rancid within two or three weeks. So if you want to buy unfiltered olive oil, make sure it is freshly pressed and will be consumed within two to three weeks. If you want to buy larger quantities of olive oil to store, make sure your EVOO is filtered. If stored correctly, it will keep for at least 24 months. (More on how to store olive oil correctly in our next post). Incidentally, all the olive oils in the Soleria range are exquisite premium extra virgin olive oils and are always filtered.

Earlier than usual, many olive trees in Spain have begun to blossom. The olive blossom is very small and although only a few of the 100 blossoms will develop into olives, they "announce" the beginning of a new harvest, the success of which depends on many factors, including the successful pollination of the blossoms. Let's hope that this year will be fruitful and abundant 💚 Thank you José Mª Penco for sharing. #evoo #aove #olivetreeblossom

We are proud of our suppliers and their ongoing commitment to the environment and sustainability.  An excellent example is Castillo de Canena's new floating photovoltaic system recently inaugurated on one of its reservoirs at the Conde de Guadiana estate. The floating installation covers an area larger than a normal football pitch. With its 6,400 m2 of floating photovoltaic surface and an inclination of 5º, the installation produces 1 MW of electricity.  This amazing project is impressive not only for its size, but also for its impact. The environmental and economic benefits are numerous: - The energy produced by the plant will be 1.8 GWh/year, avoiding the emission of 830 Tm of CO2/year, equivalent to the consumption of almost 500 average-sized homes in Spain.  - This project will not only contribute to the reduction of the Group's carbon footprint, which has been externally and independently verified since 2011, but will also generate annual savings of around €100,000 on electricity bills. - In addition to the energy benefits, the floating photovoltaic panels have saved 120 mature olive trees from being felled.  - It has also reduced the evaporation of almost 7,000 m3 of water per year, improving the company's water footprint.  - As an added benefit, the floating photovoltaic system eliminates the need to apply algaecides to the irrigation water. #sustainableolivegroves #waterfootprint #renewableenergy #greenagricuturalpractices #evoo

Over the past two years, olive oil prices in Spain have risen by up to 60%. Many consumers are confused and are asking me why. To help explain the factors, @Alexis Kerner has created a graphic showing the global events that have affected olive oil production and prices so dramatically. #oliveoilprices #evoo #spanisholiveoilprices

How the “Olivares Vivos” initiative of Soleria's Extra Virgin Olive Oil suppliers and Spain's leading olive oil producers is paving the way for an environmentally sustainable future for olive oil production. #evoo #environmentalresponsibility #sustainableagriculture
