Description

Their cultivation system integrates all the knowledge accumulated over generations with modern technologies resulting from research and development at research centers and agronomy universities.

The arrangement of the trees in a continuous hedgerow allows maximum illumination of all the foliage, providing greater accumulation of fatty acids and a homogeneous state of maturity throughout the tree.

Controlled water and nutrient inputs ensure maximum oil quality, following their principle of excellence.

The speed of harvesting guarantees the optimum condition of the fruit at the moment of harvest, thereby preserving all the aroma and taste of their land and variety.

Sikitita is a variety that comes from two of the most widespread varieties in Spain, ‘Picual’ and ‘Arbequina’. The result is a perfect balance between these two types of oil.

After a long and careful journey, once the fruit has been obtained exclusively from their own estates, their mission has only just begun: they start crafting Isbilya.

Olives are harvested in mid-October. This increases fruitiness (the organoleptic characteristic in tasting that recalls healthy, fresh olives). It entails a loss of production due to the lower oil yield of the fruit.

Harvesting takes place during the coolest hours of the day. This keeps the olives at a low temperature, enabling true cold extraction (22ºC) and producing an exceptional olive elixir.

Harvesting is carried out with an over-the-row harvester. Thanks to this system, they can harvest their entire plantation in a single day, achieving maximum homogeneity in their oils.

They harvest only olives picked from the tree and located in the upper 3/4 of the tree, where the fruits that will produce the highest-quality oil are found.

Milling takes place less than two hours after harvesting.

Extraction technology. With Gea Westfalia and the latest extraction technology, they obtain their olive juices and subject them to the strictest quality controls.

Isbilya

This is one of those brands that has everything it needs to succeed: an excellent product, elegant packaging, and people behind the brand who know exactly what they want and where they want to go. For them, nonconformity is the pursuit of excellence. It would be hard to be more disruptive. They do not see the countryside as a traditional sector. Nor do they carry out their production processes the way most others do. Another important factor is that they do not promote employment as something merely seasonal. They do not withhold information from those who place their trust in them. Isbilya sells quality—or rather, the very highest quality—because they are honest about what they do and what they believe in. Isbilya was founded in 2012 and has never stopped moving forward. And they will continue that way, because their goal is the world. With more than 40 hectares planted in the heart of El Aljarafe (Seville), they enjoy an exceptional setting where they produce four olive varieties: arbequina, arbosana, koroneiki, and sikitita. They devote extensive resources to caring for their olive trees, always preserving the native fauna and flora. Teresa and Ángel Martínez are the founders of Isbilya. Every time they think about the time they have invested in training—he as a biologist and she as a chemist—about all the sleepless nights spent creating products that move people, all the efforts to rejuvenate the EVOO sector, and all the trips made to introduce their brand… Every time they think about it, they know it has been worth it.
