Extra virgin olive oil is one of the most appreciated products in global gastronomy.

Its quality, flavor, and health benefits make it an essential ingredient in gourmet cooking. However, to ensure that the consumer receives a quality product, it is fundamental that the labeling is clear, precise, and complies with current regulations.

At Ad Morum, our philosophy is based on respect for tradition and a commitment to excellence. Generation after generation, our growers have preserved an olive-growing heritage that is part of our identity. We ensure that our oils meet the most demanding standards, always offering a transparent and quality product.

1. Guarantee of quality and authenticity

The labeling of extra virgin olive oil is the primary source of information for consumers. A well-detailed label allows consumers to know the product's quality, origin, and the characteristics that differentiate it from other oils.

In our online store Ad Morum, we guarantee that each package reflects the purity and authenticity of our Picual EVOO.

2. Origin and traceability: the key to trust

The origin of the oil is a determining factor in its quality and flavor. The exact origin of the olives must appear on the label, allowing consumers to know the product's traceability.

At Ad Morum, we are committed to transparency and highlight the Andalusian origin of our oil, ensuring that each bottle comes from selected harvests with the highest quality standards. You can learn more about our history and tradition here.

3. Information on the olive variety

Not all oils are the same, and the olive variety plays a fundamental role in their flavor and properties. The label must specify the variety used, in our case, the exquisite Picual EVOO, one of the most appreciated varieties for its intense flavor, balanced bitterness, and great stability.

Our extra virgin olive oil stands out for its green notes and high content of natural antioxidants, making it the perfect choice for gourmet cooking.

4. Harvest date and oil freshness

A key aspect of labeling is the harvest date, as it directly influences the oil's freshness. The more recent the harvest, the better it will preserve its organoleptic and nutritional properties.

At Ad Morum, we clearly indicate the harvest campaign on our packaging, ensuring that our customers enjoy a product that is always fresh and of high quality.

5. Nutritional labeling: health benefits

The labeling must also include information on the nutritional values of the oil, allowing consumers to know its health benefits. Picual EVOO is rich in oleic acid and antioxidants, promoting cardiovascular health and offering anti-inflammatory properties.

Our commitment to health and well-being leads us to offer a product that is not only delicious but also beneficial for the body.
