With outstanding complexity, and an aroma reminiscent of tomato plants, green almonds, and fresh-cut grass, this single varietal olive oil has an intense character.

O-Med is a small, family-owned business in Granada, Spain that is committed to creating extra virgin olive oil of the highest quality, purity, and freshness. Their olive grove is uniquely located at 2,300 feet above sea level, on the flanks of the Sierra Nevada mountains. After generations of growing olives, the family established a mill to produce olive oil and thus control all aspects of the process. Every drop is the result of precision and care; from selecting the best olives at their optimal point of ripeness to cold extraction at temperatures not higher than 69°F. Sustainability is crucial to their mission, in the design of their buildings, and processes, and the use of olive pits to produce energy that powers the mill. At O-Med, cutting-edge technology is balanced with artisanal and traditional methods to create olive oils that bring the terroir and flavor of Andalucía to your plate.
