Torres sits at 880 metres above sea level, in Sierra Magina. And those metres matter: the altitude slows olive ripening, polyphenols concentrate further and the oil gains complexity. The Cooperativa Santa Isabel was founded in 1971 by a group of farmers who previously managed the village hydroelectric plant. Today it is made up of 634 small-scale farmers who deliver their olives to the cooperative.
The oil is made from early-harvest Picual, picked when the olive is still green. At 880 metres the cold slows ripening, the olive matures more slowly, accumulates more polyphenols and develops a complexity that the same tree at 300 metres would not achieve. Immediate milling after harvest, cold extraction.
Senorio de Camarasa won Jaen Seleccion 2023 with its "Recien Hecho" oil and has been runner-up for the Lechuza Prize of the DOP Sierra Magina on two occasions. It belongs to the Protected Designation of Origin Sierra Magina. It is an example of what happens when a large cooperative does things right.
Torres está a 880 metros de altitud en Sierra Mágina, y este Picual lo cuenta todo. La complejidad aromática es extraordinaria: hierba recién cortada, hoja, hierbas aromáticas, tomate, alcachofa, manzana, plátano, almendra verde, especias. En boca sorprende con una entrada suave y dulce que da paso a un amargo y picante bien compensados. Es el aceite de 634 pequeños agricultores de una cooperativa fundada en 1971, y esa historia colectiva se nota en cada gota.
