OLEOLOGIST MASTERS
Each brand produced by our company offers a particular and distinctive profile and to achieve this we must assemble characteristic mixtures for them consistent with the defined Positioning and the sensory experience developed for their target groups of consumers.
Such profiles must be consistent over time, despite the fact that, as a good product from agriculture, it varies from season to season by variety due to natural factors, which means that each season and even during the same season there are to slightly change the composition of the mixtures to maintain that constant profile.
This is why our Master Oleologists exist, a team of highly qualified experts called “master blenders”, whose job is to know how to identify varieties, origins, areas or terroirs, bouquets, aromas, flavors, bitterness and hotness to achieve assembling the product. corresponding to the profile defined for each of our brands. With this we hope to satisfy the expectations of each diverse group of consumers, who seek a particular profile of their preference for their consumption, thus delivering a characteristic and consistent product over time.
supplies
In order to have various particular and unique mixtures, we must access various sources of raw material, distributed throughout the country and eventually even from abroad.
Our associated fields provide us with a percentage of very good quality base raw material, which we complement with bulk purchases produced by quality bulk farmers distributed throughout the country.
This guarantees us a diversity of profiles and less agricultural exposure and risk due to weather or health factors. That is why we supply ourselves from all the productive areas of the country, normally covering from Arica to Talca.
With this we hope to satisfy the expectations of each diverse group of consumers, who seek a particular profile of their preference for their consumption, thus delivering a characteristic and consistent product over time.

Our privileged territory offers all kinds of climatic and soil conditions, the purest waters from the Andes Mountains destined to irrigate fertile valleys suitable for wine growing, fruit growing and of course olive growing, and polarizing temperatures between day and night that they promote the development of sugars in the fruit in general, the basis for the formation of fat in olives.
This oscillation of cold and heat allows controlled ripening processes, contains the proliferation of diseases, increases the concentration of aromas and flavors and finally delivers fruit of unbeatable quality. All exceptional conditions for our olive oils.
