At Llàgrimes del Canigó, our Spanish extra virgin olive oil is truly special because it originates from the olive groves of the Costa Brava, a magical region with exceptional climatic conditions. Located in northeastern Spain, between the Pyrenees Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea, this area is renowned for its natural beauty and its influence on global gastronomy.

The olives used for our oil are cultivated in the picturesque villages of Agullana, Capmany, and Cantallops, situated in the Serra de l'Albera. These locations benefit from a privileged Mediterranean climate, with mild winters and warm summers, providing ideal conditions for the growth and ripening of olives.

But the Costa Brava stands out not only for its exceptional climate. This region has been a source of inspiration for renowned chefs and has contributed to a unique culinary influence in the world of gastronomy. Iconic figures like Ferran Adrià, Paco Pérez, and the Roca Brothers have left their mark on the Costa Brava and Girona, creating innovative culinary techniques and blending traditional flavors with new creative proposals.

The rich diversity of ingredients and flavors of the Costa Brava is reflected in our olive oil. Each drop captures the essence of this magical region and takes palates on an exceptional gastronomic journey. The olive trees cultivated in these lands convey the nuances of the soil, the sun, and the Mediterranean breeze, offering a unique and distinctive flavor profile.

Additionally, the landscape of the Costa Brava is a true visual spectacle. Its stunning views, ranging from the Mediterranean Sea to the Pyrenees Mountains, with rolling hills covered in olive trees, vineyards, and green fields, create an idyllic environment for the cultivation of our olives.
