Hermanos Talon Bueno, a pro­ducer based in Jaén, Spain, has been rec­og­nized at the NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. Their Alquería de Camarillas, an early har­vest organic Picual extra vir­gin olive oil, received a Silver Award. This recog­ni­tion high­lights the qual­ity of olive oils pro­duced by Hermanos Talon Bueno, a fam­ily with roots in Jaén dat­ing back to the thir­teenth cen­tury.

The NYIOOC, also known as the World Olive Oil Competition, is the most pres­ti­gious qual­ity con­test in the olive oil indus­try, attract­ing entries from pro­duc­ers world­wide. Hermanos Talon Bueno’s award-win­ning entry, Alquería de Camarillas, is noted for its organic cul­ti­va­tion, which aligns with the far­m’s DEMETER International cer­ti­fi­ca­tion. This cer­ti­fi­ca­tion empha­sizes the far­m’s com­mit­ment to main­tain­ing a bal­anced ecosys­tem, sup­ported by the graz­ing of horses and sheep.

The his­tory of Hermanos Talon Bueno is deeply inter­twined with the agri­cul­tural her­itage of the region. Historical records from the reign of Philip II men­tion Camarillas as a pros­per­ous farm­house ded­i­cated to agri­cul­tural work. Today, the farm con­tin­ues this tra­di­tion, pro­duc­ing high-qual­ity olive oil that has gar­nered inter­na­tional recog­ni­tion at the NYIOOC.

The Silver Award at the World Olive Oil Competition under­scores the ded­i­ca­tion of Hermanos Talon Bueno to pro­duc­ing organic olive oil that meets inter­na­tional stan­dards. This achieve­ment not only hon­ors the fam­i­ly’s long-stand­ing agri­cul­tural legacy but also high­lights the poten­tial of organic farm­ing prac­tices in the pro­duc­tion of high-qual­ity olive oil.

The win­ning brands are pre­sented in the Official Guide and the Olive Oil Times World Ranking.
