THE STORY OF ATLAS OLIVE OILProducing only ultra-premium extra virgin Olive Oil has been our family tradition for more than a century in Morocco.We plant our olive trees in the harsh rocky desert foothills of the snow-covered Atlas Mountains (African olive oil extra virgin premiere growing location). The significant temperature variations (124 F in summer with extremely cold nights), the rocky soil & scarcity of water stresses the olive trees to produce high levels of antioxidants, including hydroxytyrosol (which is only found in nature in olive oil & olive leaf and contributes to olive oil’s healthy reputation).Irrigated by the Atlas Mountain waters, constitutes a real oasis where a high quality, delicate and aromatic olive oil is produced. Our Moroccan organic olive oil is first press olive oil, and our Atlas product either comes protected in a convenient olive oil can or in an extra virgin olive oil glass bottle, to preserve the ultimate product quality.PASSION FOR AGRICULTUREA passion and devotion to agriculture for more than a century define the tradition of the Aqallal Family.
