The Hojiblanca from Oro del Desierto comes from the El Vicario estate, in the Tabernas desert, Almeria. The Alonso family has been cultivating olive trees for three generations in the driest climate in Europe: less than 180 mm of annual rainfall and more than 3,000 hours of sunshine. Hojiblanca under early harvest and extreme water stress produces a concentration of polyphenols — particularly oleocanthal, a natural anti-inflammatory — well above what is typical for this variety.
Organic certification since 1999. 130 hectares, 36,000 olive trees, no pesticides, no herbicides, no shortcuts. The harvest is early, with the olive still green, and milling takes place on the same day. EU certification issued by CAAE with annual audits.
Oro del Desierto has accumulated more than 250 international awards and 99/100 in the Flos Olei guide. The grove was recognised as the most sustainable in Spain in 2023. The Hojiblanca is the variety with the most character in the range: five single-varieties and one blend, all from the same desert terroir, all organic.
La Hojiblanca del desierto es pura potencia contenida. Nariz verde intensa con bellota, tomate verde y pinceladas de pimienta blanca — y en boca un carácter que se presenta desde el primer momento con ese picante tipo guindilla clásico de la variedad. Es una Hojiblanca que nos recuerda lo que esta variedad puede dar cuando crece en condiciones extremas y se cosecha en el momento justo.
