Costa Brava: a magical and exceptional land

Our Auream Argudell olive oil is truly special because it comes from the olive trees of the Costa Brava, a magical land with exceptional climatic conditions. Located north of the province of Girona, between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean coast, this region stands out for its natural beauty and its influence on global gastronomy.

The olives used for our oil are grown in fields located in the picturesque towns of Agullana, Capmany, and Cantallops, in northern Catalonia, bordering France. These places have been blessed with a privileged Mediterranean climate, with mild winters and warm summers, which provides ideal conditions for the growth and ripening of the olives.

But the Costa Brava does not only stand out for its exceptional climatic conditions. This region has been a source of inspiration for renowned chefs and has led to a unique culinary influence in the world of gastronomy. Iconic figures such as Ferran Adrià, Paco Pérez, and the Roca Brothers have left their mark on the Costa Brava, creating innovative culinary techniques and fusing traditional flavors with new creative proposals.

The rich diversity of ingredients and flavors of the Costa Brava is reflected in our olive oil. Each drop captures the essence of this magical region and transports palates on an exceptional gastronomic journey. The olive trees grown in these lands transmit the nuances of the soil, the sun, and the Mediterranean breeze, offering a unique and distinctive flavor profile.

Furthermore, the landscape of the Costa Brava is a true visual spectacle. Its impressive views, ranging from the Mediterranean Sea to the Pyrenees mountains, with their rolling hills covered with olive groves, vineyards, and green fields, create an idyllic environment for growing our olives.
