Hermejor de la Reina

Almazara Hermejor de la Reina is in the area surrounding the Jaén town of Villanueva de la Reina, the oil mill was designed under the most innovative technological concepts, combining the traditional values and uniting functionality and aesthetics. The building, inspired by the Egyptian Pyramid of Cheops, is a single structure made of stone, stainless steel and glass.

Hermejor de la Reina, unlike most of the other mills, has no cylindrical decanters. These vessels mix oils without distinguishing between qualities and prevent the elimination of residues that ferment over time and transmit bad smells to the rest of the content.

Therefore, the natural juice obtained is moved to “floating” Tinolliums, whose shape, used in the past by the Phoenicians, allows the residue left after separation to be fully removed.

The Tinolliums are balanced against a point that instantly weighs the amount produced and allows its origin to be checked and for there to be full individual monitoring of each batch produced, a step prior to characterisation through analysis and tasting for subsequent delivery to the cellar.

La Almazara Hermejor de la Reina is a company which emerged in order to expand the production and sales of an exclusive olive oil.
