The Frantoio olive—together with Coratina—is one of Italy’s most cultivated varieties. It is especially iconic in Tuscany, shaping the landscapes and aromas we associate with the region in the popular imagination.
In recent years, some growers have introduced the variety to the northern areas of Jaén. Frantoio extra virgin olive oil is distinctive for its balance, bitter-almond notes, and a chilli-like pungency reminiscent of Hojiblanca.
This Oro Bailén Frantoio is an exclusive, refined oil made solely from Frantoio olives. A single-varietal that forms part of the Oro Bailén monovarietal family (Villanueva de la Reina), it offers excellent value for money, appreciated for its rounded profile and differentiation from other Jaén EVOOs.
Elegant and harmonious, it adds a sophisticated touch—perfect for lovers of delicate, singular flavours.

A unique and organic variety, Supremo Cornezuelo stands out for its exclusivity and complexity, derived from Cornezuelo olives. It's the perfect choice for adventurous palates seeking authentic and intense flavors.
The Cornezuelo variety is less well-known but is distinguished by its robustness and unique flavor , traits that are beautifully reflected in this Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
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.
