PRODUCTION
Due
to its desire and great care to obtain virgin olive oil with
the perfect aroma, flavour and colour and without losing any
of its vitamins or other natural properties, Mallafré
makes extra virgin olive oil in a stone mill, where it produces
the olive paste.
This paste is then put through a selective cold extraction
process using a Sinolea press and Palacin filter.
Between 40% and 60% of the aceite flor (“flower of the
oil”) is obtained through this process, in other words,
olive oil extracted without pressure. The remaining oil is
obtained through centrifugation.

All
of the pieces equipment that come into contact with the olives
are made of stainless steel.
Afterwards, the oil is naturally decanted and it is classified
and stored in underground deposits called cups, which are
ideal due to their stable temperature.
From the cups the oil is then sent to be packaged, where it
is put into bottles of various shapes and sizes.
