Castillo de Canena is owned and run by the Vano family in the Andalucia region of Spain where they have been since the 1780's. The name comes from the centuries old castle on the estate in Jaen, in the foothills of the famous Seirra Magina . The family oversees the care of the olive orchards with great care for the land and holds several industry certifications to ensure the highest quality. This includes a special watering system from the Guadiana Menor river.The olives are picked and transported to the mill within two hours for cold pressing. They maintain a tradition of producing the highest quality olive oil with a combination of old world tradition and modern ecological wisdom.
