The Mezquita Awards is an international olive oil competition held in Cordoba, Spain, which seeks to promote the quality of extra virgin olive oil around the world. Each year, producers from all over the world submit their oils to be evaluated by a panel of olive oil tasting experts.

We are pleased to announce that our company has been awarded two Mezquita Oro 2023 medals, one for our hojiblanca extra virgin olive oil and one for our arbequina extra virgin olive oil. This is a great achievement for us and a recognition of the quality of our olive oils.
