The company

A shop, a tasting room and a company founded by two people who live for olive oil.

Jero and Mercedes grow, mill, sell, teach and advise some of the most selective and awarded companies in the sector — a no-nonsense approach that has put Molino & Cata at the front of innovation in the craft.

And a place you can trust blind.

Our standard

What every oil on our shelf has in common.

No exceptions and no small print — every extra virgin olive oil we offer passes the same selection criteria.

“I taste everything blind, in the cobalt glass. If an oil does not tell a story on the nose, it never reaches the shelf.”

How we select our oils
01

Only singular oils

Never blends — each one is a unique, distinct extra virgin.

02

Tasted and selected

Chosen blind by Mercedes Uceda.

03

A short, rotating shelf

Only oils at their best moment.

04

Always cold extracted

Extracted below 27 °C, preserving aromas and polyphenols.

05

Freshly bottled

Recently milled and bottled — never old stock.

06

Owned by experts

Run by people who taste and teach olive oil for a living.

Fair by design

Fair to you, fair to the farmer.

We are farmers ourselves — so we pay mills and producers fairly, and pass the savings directly to you. No importer, no distributor, no boutique markup.

And we never dropship. Every bottle travels to our own climate-controlled warehouse, where each lot is analysed again before earning its place on the shelf.

“Where the olive tree gives up,
the Mediterranean ends.”
— Georges Duhamel

Molino & Cata was born of love. Love for our family, who taught us that some things matter more than any career. Love for a legacy — three generations of olive farmers, from Cazorla to Jaen, from the grove to the laboratory. And love for a sector that works incredibly hard and is not always rewarded.

That is why we select, taste, film, write and open our oleoteca every morning: so that the best extra virgin olive oil reaches the people who appreciate it.

What we stand for
01

Taste, never look.

We choose what reaches the shelf by how it tastes — not by bottle design or medals.

02

Every name, every grove.

Every producer known by name, every oil traced back to the grove where it grew.

03

Oil for every table.

We raise the culture and bring this superfood to every table — never just a gift or an expensive rarity.
