Three years without chemicals, at least.
We work with groves and orchards that have been farmed without chemicals for at least three years before we accept their fruit. No pesticides, chemicals or genetically modified ingredients. Ever. The soil is rested, the trees are pruned by hand, and the harvest is timed to the fruit, not the calendar.
Cold, below 27°C, within hours of harvest.
Our olive and avocado oils are extracted cold, at temperatures below 27°C, within hours of harvest. Nothing is refined, nothing is blended. What the fruit gives, the bottle keeps.
Open copper, small batches, fruit alone.
Our preserves and sauces are cooked in small batches, in open copper and stainless steel, with fruit, vegetables, herbs and a little sea salt. We use no added sugar, no thickeners, no artificial preservatives. If a jam is sweet, the fruit is the reason.
Every batch, on record.
Every batch is tested before it is released: acidity, peroxides, polyphenols, microbiology. Samples are archived. Results are kept. We are wholeheartedly responsible for the quality of our products, and we keep the evidence to prove it.
Free from gluten, added sugar, palm oil — and anything we could not explain to a child standing in the grove.— The promise of the house
