terres bio. A careful process from the tree to your table
Taking care of every stage of the terres bio production process enables the oil to reach your table with all its healthy properties of nutrients and antioxidants, and at the same time still retain the fullness of its exquisite aroma and flavor.
The various varieties of olives are always harvested at an optimum degree of maturity in order to achieve the best quality as well as highlight their special properties. We keep the fruit clean and healthy, and handled it with care throughout the process so that it reaches the olive press in perfect condition.
The harvesting is done by hand, combining mechanical and manual methods, so as to avoid damaging the tree. Over time, new improvements have been incorporated that both preserve and develop the traditional techniques.
The harvested fruit is taken to the olive press, used exclusively for the production of organic oil, where it is pressed the same day. We only harvest the amount of olives the press can handle in one day.
Once there, the oil is cold extracted to preserve its organoleptic properties (those you can perceive with your five senses) and high nutritional content. Thanks to this method, the oil maintains its high quality with an acid content of no more than 0.2%.
The subsequent storage takes place in tanks that protect the oil from its main enemies: oxygen, light and unsuitable temperatures. In addition, we have selected dark glass bottles to ensure the light does not change the properties of the oil.
