I can only say one thing about Andrés Aguilar: gratitude. He was the first oil mill I spoke to when we started this project, and he made himself available to us for anything we needed, without any strings attached.
It's no surprise that it was part of our first Starter Pack, because in addition to great people, they have excellent products. We know this firsthand because during the production period, Andrés Aguilar was our second home.
This isn't an oil you can find just anywhere. In fact, as far as I know, you can only find it in three places: at their Almazara, at Paraíso Virgen Extra in Jaén, and here at Molino y Cata.
If you decide to visit them, they're located next to the Linares south exit off the A-32 highway. Tell them you're coming from us.

Oro Bailén, a benchmark brand based in Villanueva de la Reina (Jaén), raises the bar year after year with this 100% Arbequina single-varietal EVOO, harvested from its own groves and cold-milled at the estate’s mill just hours after picking.

Smooth and delicate, Oro Bailén Arbequina brings subtlety and natural charm to every dish. It’s fantastic both raw and in cooking—especially in baking as a substitute for animal fats like butter.
Made from selected Arbequina olives, its gentle flavour is perfect for those who appreciate lightness and fine nuances in the kitchen. This Jaén extra virgin olive oil consistently delights.
