About this oil
A variety with history
The Arbequina variety originates from Palestine and was introduced to Spain by the Duke of Medinaceli, baron of Arbeca (it takes its name from this Catalan town, where the Duke lived). Although it is now grown all over the world, its cultivation is especially widespread in Catalonia and Aragon.
This single-variety EVOO (100% Arbequina) comes from the estates of the Pobill Ecològics farm (Poubonet and Bovalar).
