The ripe olives are only harvested between December to March and are processed by the ’maîtres huiliers’ the same day.
The olives are ground to a paste before being placed in a centrifuge, where the simple force of gravity separates the heavier oil from the juice of the olives before it is passed through a paper filter and bottled.
