Everything behind the numbers — the varietal, the estate, the milling, and how to taste it.
Pago de Penarrubia was born in 2014 when two families of agricultural engineers with five generations in the olive business decided to do things differently. They bought an estate in Hellin, Albacete, at the foot of the Sierra de Segura, converted it to organic in 2019, and built their own mill on the property. From tree to mill in less than 3 hours.
Organic here is not just a label: they keep geese to control weeds, produce their own organic compost, and grow truffles among the olive trees. It is an estate where everything is designed for the ecosystem to function without chemicals. EU organic certification. Cold extraction, separating varieties and cultivation zones. Each batch is traceable to the individual plot.
Third Mario Solinas Prize 2025 from the International Olive Council, Green Light category. Gold at Ecotrama and NYIOOC. Listed in the Flos Olei guide and the World's Best Olive Oils. An organic altitude Picual that is beginning to compete with the major estates in the sector.
Este picual viene de una finca donde crían ocas para controlar las malas hierbas y generan su propio abono. Una finca donde el tiempo se para y nace la pasión por el AOVE. Es un picual que sorprende, al tener un amargo y picante contenido, de Albacete, que no es un territorio habitual para esta variedad, lo que le da un carácter propio.
From tree to mill in 3 hours -- why does that matter?
