Do you know what “coupage” means?

Traditionally, related with enology, coupage (action of mixing two or more varieties), also applies to the olive oil production.

We work on balancing them naturally until we find the perfect coupage, in which the consumer finds the aromas and nuances from Spain. And just like that, the 202I Iberoleum guide has recognized the GOYA EVOO as the best coupage in Spain.
