We are thrilled to announce that our Ancestral Coupage has been awarded the Platinum Medal in the Quality category at the prestigious London International Olive Oil Competitions (London IOOC) 2024. This recognition highlights our commitment to producing the highest quality EVOOs.
What are the London IOOC Awards?
The London IOOC is one of the most respected competitions in the olive oil world, judging extra virgin olive oils from around the world. The competition covers several categories, including quality, design, health claims and infused oils. The prizes are awarded by a panel of experts through a blind tasting, which ensures impartiality and accuracy in the evaluation.
The Quality Category
The quality category is perhaps the most coveted and rigorous, evaluating olive oils based on their taste, aroma and general organoleptic characteristics. Winning in this category is a testament to the superiority of the olive oil in terms of purity, flavour and tradition in its production.
Our Coupage Ancestral is the result of a meticulous combination of our single-varietal EVOOs, carefully selected for their flavor and unique features. Ancestral Coupage is crafted each year by an international team of professional tasters at our Ancestral Event, offering a flavor profile that is both complex and balanced.
The Platinum Medal is a special award awarded to the best EVOOs in each category. This recognition reinforces our commitment to the production of olive oil of the highest quality, using sustainable and environmentally friendly methods.
Tasting Note
Our oil with the most personality, as it is the perfect union of our best oils. It is versatile with aromas of fresh leaves of grass, fig tree and fresh fruit. The sensation in the mouth is fresh and very fruity.

To celebrate this achievement, we would like to thank all our customers, partners and collaborators who have supported our mission. Without their support and trust, this achievement would not have been possible.
We also want to make a special mention to our tasters Alexis, Catherine, Tomiko, Alberto, Begoña and Marina for creating an extraordinary Ancestral Coupage.
Thank you for being part of our history and for celebrating this incredible achievement with us!
