From the Aljarafe, in under two hours

Isbilya is born in Umbrete, in the Aljarafe district of Seville, from the groves of Aceites Yllanes Marini. The olive trees grow in continuous hedgerows, an arrangement that lets light reach all the foliage so the olives ripen evenly across the tree. Water and nutrients are measured with precision, and the harvest is brought forward to mid-October while the fruit is still green: yield is sacrificed, fruitiness is gained.

Picking takes place in the coolest hours of the day, using only olives taken from the tree, and the whole plantation can be harvested in a single day. In under two hours the olives reach the mill, where the oil is cold-extracted and bottled under an inert atmosphere to keep its aromas intact.

Unfiltered special edition

Isbilya Excellence Koroneiki Unfiltered, 6 × 500 ml (3 L)

This special edition is bottled unfiltered, just as it leaves the mill. It may therefore look slightly cloudy and show some natural sediment at the bottom of the bottle: this is oil at its most direct, with all the intensity of the first extraction. It is best enjoyed in the months following bottling and kept in its gift case, away from light.

A case of six bottles

The case holds six 500 ml bottles of the same reference, 3 L in total, each in its gift case. The price is for the complete case as sold by the producer. Six bottles let you keep one open in the kitchen and set the rest aside, or share them as gifts. The photograph shows one real unit; the quantity you receive is the one stated in the product name.

At the table

Its marked bitterness calls for dishes with personality: chargrilled meats, pulses, ripe tomatoes with coarse salt, aged cheeses, sautéed mushrooms or a thick salmorejo. A drizzle at the end over a vegetable soup or roast potatoes transforms the dish completely.
