SEGORBE NOSTRUM olive oil obtains the second maximum award for quality in Los Angeles

Segorbe Nostrum olive oil produced by the Cooperative of Segorbe, succeeds again thanks to its exceptional quality, in the awards for the best Extra Virgin Olive Oils which is given each year in California (United States).

The Cooperative is fully satisfied with the international acknowledgement that their Extra Virgin Olive Oils are still receiving. This time, they have been doubly awarded in "Los Angeles International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Competition", obtaining two Silver Medals: one for the "Intense Unfiltered Segorbe Nostrum" in the category Medium and another one for “Mild Segorbe Nostrum” in the category Delicate.

The participation at this XIIth competition was of 599 oils from 20 different nations, among which were the classic producers like Spain, Italy or Greece, as well as other countries like Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Lebanon, Mexico, South Africa, Uruguay, Peru, etc. They were all evaluated in a blind tasting where factors such as taste, aroma, complexity and harmony were taken into account.

The company is particularly glad since this season it has already achieved 8 top honours, including both national and international awards, becoming this way the most awarded autochthonous oil in the world.
This is a great new success for this excellent oil of “Valencia Region Protected Designation of Origin”.
