Castillo de Canena Arbequino Family Reserve

Castillo de Canena is a distinctive and unique family company that is entirely committed and involved in the whole process of producing extra virgin olive oil; from cultivation, milling, storage, packaging, to commercialisation of the best harvest.

The 16th century Castle of Canena is located in the valley of the Guadalquivir in the province of Jaén, Andalucia, Spain, the world's leading region in the production of extra virgin olive oil.

ArbequinoAlthough it is the olive of Catalonia par excellence, it is also to be found in other parts of Spain; the Balearic Islands, Extremadura and Andalusia. The fruit is small and round and the tree of medium size, leafy, and of a dark green colour.

Taste of Arbequino Family Reserve

“It stands out for its extraordinary fineness, roundness and enormous complexity, within an appreciable intensity and fine body, and, especially, its exceptional fruit, aromatic and gustatory quality. Exuberant vegetable fragrances: lemon skin, lemon verbena, tomato leaves and olives. And in the mouth it stores a growing, very evolutionary taste, where the velvety entrance eventually becomes an explosion of impregnated green sensations of a fine bitterness and a certain final spiciness".
