The Finest Quality Spanish Olive Oil

Spanish olive oil is considered one of the finest food products in the world. In fact, it is one of the main reasons our cuisine enjoys such high international standing and why our Mediterranean diet ranks among the nutritional elite, being one of the healthiest in the world.

At Your Spanish Shop we stock several brands of top-quality Spanish olive oil. That's why, in this post, we're going to tell you everything you need to know about this prized product known as liquid gold. That way you can enjoy both its incredible flavour and its many benefits, as well as the convenience of buying the best olive oil in the world from our online shop.

Why buy Spanish olive oil?

There's no denying that Spanish olive oil is hugely renowned worldwide. And yes, there are other olive oils produced around the globe, but none quite like the Spanish one. This is down to both its flavour and its quality, achieved thanks to the properties our land offers for its production.

Our country's terrain is ideal for growing olive trees thanks to the climate conditions and the soils found across the different Spanish regions. For this reason, our country produces more olive oil than anywhere else in the world. We devote around 2.6 million hectares to olive groves and are responsible for 50% of all olive oil production worldwide.

So, if you're wondering why you should buy Spanish olive oil, the answer is clear: because it's the best in the world thanks to our production capacity and the great diversity of climates, microclimates and quality soils that make Spain stand out so much. This is precisely what has given us such a wide variety of high-quality olive trees and olives.

What's more, beyond its incredible flavour, do you know the benefits Spanish olive oil provides and why it's considered an endless source of health? It has a high content of oleic and linoleic acid, which offer:

• Raised levels of HDL cholesterol, or as we usually call it, the good kind.
• Lower LDL-c cholesterol, in other words, the bad kind.
• Control of high blood pressure levels.
• Reduced occurrence of thrombosis and protection against diabetes.

That said, like everything, it should be consumed in a balanced way, since any excess can be harmful to your health.

Why is Spanish oil so good?

And what makes Spanish olive oil the finest quality in the world? As we've been saying, our land and our climate.

In fact, thanks to the conditions and the diversity of our regions and weather, olive trees grow and develop in different ways across Spain, resulting in different types of olive that would not survive under other conditions.

That's why, in our country, we have olives that give rise to Spanish olive oils that cannot be produced anywhere else in the world.

Furthermore, each olive variety yields an olive with a distinctive, characteristic texture, flavour and aroma. This is why Spanish olive oil stands out so much worldwide and is considered the best in the world.

But to earn such prestige, you have to go a little further… The production process.

This factor is essential to maintaining the quality of the raw material, and it must be entirely respectful of the olives and the oil.

That's where Spanish extra virgin olive oil comes from, the product whose quality is thoroughly guaranteed.

In fact, it's known as liquid gold for its organoleptic qualities that delight our senses, as well as for its significant health benefits.

That's why the oils produced in Spain are clearly committed to being extra virgin, making them one of the main pillars of the wonderful Mediterranean diet.

With all that said, there's no doubt that the reputation Spanish olive oil has earned worldwide is well deserved.
