The olive oil Cartel is one of the largest olive groves in the Essaouria region. The Olive Oil Cartel is a family-owned olive grove in the Essaouira Region in Morocco. Among locals, it is known that in the Essaouira Region polyphenol-rich Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced while maintaining low levels of acidity. Essaouira is located on the Atlantic Ocean and near the foot of the Atlas Mountains, yet it offers Morocco's desert climate. The maintenance of an olive tree is a delicate process where the tree deserves the utmost respect and care. Yet, we believe that we significantly differ as an olive oil producer from others, because we pay much attention to the quality of the soil where we grow our product. Where some farms might have depleted their soils for the last hundreds of years, we had the rare opportunity to plant our trees on virgin land. These soils have only been used for grazing and nature has filled the soil with many nutrimental minerals. That is why our trees produce olive oil with high levels of polyphenols, and yet it has some of the lowest acidity levels possible. Polyphenols are powerful antioxidants that may provide health benefits. This is a great grocery staple item whether you follow Keto, Halal, Kosher, NON-GMO or Vegan diets! This is the Taste of Nature – Olive Oil Cartel.
