To prevent any damage to the fruit, GOYA® Green Olives are hand-picked in the veraison stage, at the beginning of their ripening period (between September and October). The olives cannot be eaten directly from the tree, so they first undergo a treatment to eliminate their bitterness. Then, we store them in brine.
At that moment, recently-harvested and rich in sugars, they begin a natural process during which they start to become oil, giving the olive its authentic flavor. This process is referred to as “Seville Style”. Now, they are ready for packaging.
Among the different kinds of GOYA® Green Olives, we have the Queen olives (Gordal variety), large andheart-shaped, available both pitted and stuffed. Manzanilla variety GOYA® Green Olives are smaller in size: characteristic of Sevillian olive groves, it is a generous and tasty olive.
Goya Spain packages its manzanilla green olives whole, pitted and sliced. At Goya Spain we carry out exhaustive controls to guarantee that all of our products and ingredients are free of pesticides.
