Olivapalacios, a fam­ily-run olive oil pro­ducer from Spain, has been rec­og­nized with two Gold Awards at the NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. The awards were given for their Palacio de Los Olivos Arbequina and Palacio de los Olivos Picual oils.

The NYIOOC, known as the World Olive Oil Competition, is a pres­ti­gious event that eval­u­ates olive oils from around the globe. Olivapalacios’ win­ning entries high­light the qual­ity of their extra vir­gin olive oils, which are pro­duced from 100 per­cent Picual and Arbequina olives.

The Palacio de Los Olivos Arbequina, which received a Gold Award, is crafted from hand-picked Arbequina olives. These olives are pressed imme­di­ately at the on-site mill located on the fam­ily farm, ensur­ing the oil’s qual­ity and fresh­ness.

Similarly, the Palacio de los Olivos Picual, also a Gold Award recip­i­ent, is har­vested within a three-week period on the farm. This method is employed to main­tain a con­sis­tent organolep­tic pro­file each sea­son.

Olivapalacios oper­ates in the Campo de Calatrava region of Almagro, Ciudad Real, where their olive grove spans 210 hectares of vol­canic soil. This unique envi­ron­ment con­tributes to the dis­tinct char­ac­ter­is­tics of their oils.

The recog­ni­tion at the NYIOOC under­scores Olivapalacios’ com­mit­ment to pro­duc­ing high-qual­ity extra vir­gin olive oils, rein­forc­ing their posi­tion in the global olive oil mar­ket.

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