Los Badenes, the Picual grove

The family behind Aires de Jaén, from Jabalquinto, has devoted more than half a century to olive oil. Its Los Badenes groves, beside the Guadalquivir, mix traditional trees with modern plantings of Picual, Arbequina, Frantoio and Empeltre.

The mill stands on the same estate, so the olives for Finca Badenes Picual reach it freshly picked. The house looks after the whole process, from tree to bottle.
