OLIVE OIL VARIETIES

THE HARD WORKING OLIVE TREE

Like many other fruits, olives grow on trees. The soil, climate, altitude and surrounding plants that an olive tree is exposed to during growth affect the quality of the olives it produces.

Some olive trees have the potential to grow 8-15metres in height. However, most are kept much shorter for ease of harvest. The average olive tree bears from 30 – 150kgs of olives each season to produce anywhere from 20 – 40 litres of olive oil per tree depending on weather conditions and maturity of the fruit. It takes a whole year for the tree to produce what most people can enjoy over a few salads, dips and cooking baskets.

Prema’s detail, attention and care given while the trees are developing fruit is one of the upmost important key factors needed, that results in the quality of the olive while developing. This determines in how the quality of the oil becomes, due to the wholesome healthy growing management procedures.

HERE COMES THE HARVEST

Beneath the fruit is the stone – (Endocarp) which serves as a protective pocket for the seed – (Kernel). Remove the seed and you create an olive paste ready for processing and turning into a golden liquid, creating extra virgin olive oil.
