Premium Cold Pressed Organic Moroccan Olive Oil

Atlas Olive Oils, a 4-generation family company with a rich olive oil tradition dating back to 1887, is committed to responsible development that respects the environment and people. This commitment has led the company to produce its organic extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) sustainably, creating job opportunities in the impoverished regions of Morocco while respecting and preserving the local culture and land.

The company's passion for the special terroir, combined with a desire for innovation, has driven the development of new orchards using the latest cultivation systems, all while fully respecting the environment and people. Improved soil conditions, a careful selection of cultivars, and attentive tree growth enable Atlas Olive Oils to produce high-quality olives.

Naturally rich in polyphenols, particularly hydroxytyrosol, the company's EVOO is the result of the olive trees' stress response to the harsh desert environment, with its extreme temperatures, rocky soil, and limited water availability. This "panic" or survival instinct causes the trees to produce a significant quantity of antioxidants, resulting in an extraordinary hydroxytyrosol value in the final oil.

Atlas Olive Oils has carefully approached all aspects of its organic EVOO production process, adopting sustainable procedures to ensure full satisfaction. The company's organic EVOO, "Desert Miracle," is made from a blend of Dahbia (a Moroccan variety) and Arbequina (a Spanish variety) olives, grown in the ElBorouj region at an altitude of 340 meters.

The olive grove covers 200 hectares (495 acres) of a diverse, well-aerated soil composition, with 25% clay, 30% muddy/loamy, and 45% sandy. The olive trees are pruned into cups or hedges, with a density of 1,852 trees per hectare. The annual production of this ultra-premium organic EVOO is 330,000 liters, with a maximum acidity of 0.2% when bottled.

Harvested from late September to late December, the olives are first cold-pressed at a maximum temperature of 26°C, using a two-phase continuous system. The yield ranges from 11.0% to 14%.

This organic EVOO has been recognized and trusted by Michelin-starred chefs, exclusive restaurants, luxury hotels, high-profile institutions, and prestigious gourmet stores, including the Hotel George V in Paris, the Embassy of the USA in Paris, and renowned chefs such as Jean-Marie Amat, Pierre Gagnaire, Yannick Alleno, Thierry Marx, and Frédéric Anton.

Customers can choose from a range of Atlas Olive Oils products, including Desert Miracle, Les Terroirs de Marrakech, and the Atlas line, all offering distinct aromas and flavors suitable for various culinary applications, from baking and desserts to general cooking and dipping.
