Quality Olive oil
More than an olive oil – a guarantee.
Every drop of Lucentina EVOO is born from an unwavering commitment to excellence: complete control of the process, real sustainability, traditional expertise, and the endorsement of the most demanding international certifications. We are a brand with soul, backed by science and consumer trust.
🌿 1. Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) Aceite de Lucena
Our signature seal
Lucentina is protected under the PDO Aceite de Lucena, a European label that certifies geographical origin, the exclusive use of the Hojiblanca variety, and a traditional process that shapes the unique sensory profile of our oil.
The PDO guarantees:
Cultivation in the Lucena region
Cold extraction and immediate milling
Green fruitiness with almond and herbal notes
Full traceability: from the olive tree to the bottle
👉 An EVOO with heritage, precision, and Andalusian soul.
🧪 2. Technical quality: analysis, traceability and standards
All our EVOO undergoes strict quality control:
Physical and chemical testing in ENAC-accredited external laboratories
Sensory tasting by official panels
Certification under international standards such as IFS Food
Fully traceable batches from grove to customer
Our processes are audited annually to renew ISO certifications and ensure continuous improvement.
👉 If it’s not excellent, it doesn’t get bottled.
🌱 3. Responsible and sustainable agriculture
At Lucentina, we see the olive grove as an ecosystem. Our production follows an agroecological approach that cares for the land, protects the environment, and guarantees the future of the Andalusian countryside.
Our commitments:
Efficient water use (localized and controlled irrigation)
Zero chemical herbicides
Olive waste reused for biomass and compost
Organic certification in our Lucentina Ecological range
👉 Because true quality also means positive impact.
🔬 4. Innovation meets tradition
Our modern facilities preserve traditional methods while introducing innovation at every stage:
Milling within 12 hours of harvest
Controlled temperatures to preserve aromas
Inert atmosphere stainless steel tanks
Controlled bottling line and automatic labelling
Integrated traceability software
👉 Lucentina blends ancestral wisdom with cutting-edge precision.
