Extra Virgen Olive Oils from Jaen

A few years ago, olive trees of the Royal variety were on the verge of disappearing. This is a minor, native variety from the Sierra de Cazorla (Jaén) that presents two challenges: the fruit does not detach easily until it is very ripe, and yields are lower than other varieties. In addition, many trees are centuries old, making mechanised harvesting impossible.

Some bold brands began producing early-harvest, high-end oil from this olive, and today it has become a treasure for the most discerning palates. Aceite Supremo is one of the houses that has championed this rare mountain variety, producing this certified organic, single-varietal extra virgin olive oil.

Supremo Royal de Cazorla (a native and rare variety from Jaén—especially present in the Sierra de Cazorla) stands out for its exclusivity and elegant profile.

Made from olives carefully selected at their optimal ripeness and cold-milled within hours of harvesting, this EVOO offers a distinctive, aromatic flavour with a subtle, balanced expression that elevates everyday cooking without masking ingredients.

If you’re looking for a Royal EVOO with a clear identity and Andalusian origin, this bottling captures the essence of a little-known variety—perfect for those who value extra virgin olive oils with finesse and character.

This is a personal project by Víctor Uceda, who decided to launch a limited production of 2,000 bottles of early-harvest oil featuring his Picuales. This special edition Kikaya is also a charity project that donates part of its profits to the NGO Babies Uganda. The designs on the box and bottle were designed by the children, to whom part of the profits collected from the sale of this edition will go.

Viscount of Almansa: A visionary project

This Coratina is a multi-faceted experience. A personal vision of modernizing a multi-generational tradition. A collaboration with one of the most modern olive oil mills in the province of Jaén. A great deal of artistry by Isabel Cabello to reinterpret Schrödl's original painting that observes this generational change.

Along with Frantoio, Coratina is Italy's most representative variety. One is more potent, the other is more subtle.

The harvest takes place in a modern, converted olive grove near Espeluy, where a variety uncommon in the province of Jaén was chosen.

It is harvested at the veraison stage - or early harvest - and milled and processed at the Oleícola Jaén facilities in Baeza.
