FESTIVAL 2009 NEW OLIVE OIL




The olive tree is perhaps the most charismatic Mediterranean. Mont-Roig del Camp , a town with a long tradition in the cultivation and subsequent production of olive oil, held last Sunday Party New Olive Oil 2009 with assistance from many people wanting to test the current crop oil. It is in the morning the first Sunday in November when it is celebrated with a packed breakfast popular with meat and grilled sausages, toast and the new oil. Although the weather was a bit dodgy, with wind and intermittent rain, there were many people who came up here, and enjoyed as well as other side events to the party, as the giants, folk music, a championship " botifarra " (card game), etc ...

This excellent oil is produced from olives "Arbequina" and is part of the Designation of Origin SIURANA . The traditional system of collecting and compiling produces an extra virgin oil with low acidity, making it very popular. It is sold retail in 5-liter bottles and bottles of 1 and 2 liters. The price of the 5-liter bottle is 22 euros, and the purchase of 2 bottles you a complimentary bottle of 2 liters. Part of the production is exported in bulk. There are 3 local brands that sell olive oil, "Mont-Roig Fruits" produced by the local agricultural cooperative, "Oil Sole" and "Anton Blanc oils" which are private producers.


this is particularly suitable for cooking oil, salad dressing, basic to the "pa amb tomàquet" and to the traditional "all i oli" that accompanies many dishes. Some restaurants offer letter and oil, as more and more people are choosing one or another type of oil, as is done with wine or mineral water.


Mark your calendar the date the first Sunday in November to attend the festival next year.
