After the picking and before the process, the Selection olives are sorted whereby only the olives larger than 16 mm. and only ones without any damage are used. The damaged ones are discarded unlike many other producers in the region, the olives are crushed with disc type of crusher and under cold conditions. The oil produced is then stored under a nitrogen enriched environment to prevent oxidation and then bottled unfiltered when needed.
