ABOUT US

Az-Azeytun emerges from the initiative of a young entrepreneur son of Batea, Abel Maijó, born into a peasant family. As as young boy, Abel would learn to work and appreciate the land, the vine and the olive trees. He studied viticulture and, with the knowledge acquired in school, as much as by his father and grandfather, he dared to become a peasant and entrepreneur, cultivating his own land.

Az-Azeytun’s extra virgin olive oil is obtained from a land in which olive trees are the heritage of the Arabs, like the name of this extra virgin olive oil indicates, as it comes from the Arab writer Al-Idrisi (10th to 12th Centuries) who called the “land of olive trees” or “oil province”, the territory crossed by the valleys of the rivers Ebre, Segre and Cinca.

The placement of the lands, the dry climate of the “Terra Alta”, the special care in farming of the young olive trees and the recollection at the precise moment, make the obtained Arbequina olive one of maximum quality and exceptional flavour.

All those factors can be appreciated during the tasting of the extra virgin olive oil Az-Azeytun, in which all the organoleptic senses wake.

Olive oil is the star product of the Mediterranean diet, providing great benefits to our health and an exquisite taste to our food and culinary recipes.
