Fun Fact…Spain is the Number One producer of olive oil and olives in the world. “For over 150 years Spain’s Garcia de la Cruz has been a respected grower and producer of premium, organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO.)” Over it’s history three generations of women have managed the enterprise.

“At Garcia de la Cruz, they are dedicated to preserving Spain's culinary legacy and the planet for generations to come. Through sustainable practices, they produce pure, organic olive oils and exquisite Spanish products. Their ambitious goal is to ensure that the magic of their land endures.”

The Family-owned Montes de Toledo orchards yield top-quality olives (Cornicabra, Picual, Arbequina, Hojiblanca), all organic.

“Picture a world where Spain's exquisite flavors grace tables worldwide. We, a cherished family-owned brand, aspire to deliver Spain's finest sustainably.
