Arbosana Olives

Arbosana Olive trees start producing olives after two years, and reach full fruiting in five years. The olives are small, but with a good oil yield of 19 to 20%.

The oil has a pungent, fruity taste. It is often blended into oils from other olives to improve their taste and aroma.

The trees can be planted very densely in orchards. The tree is now being tried in California (2004), so that California producers can start producing olive oils that will compete with European oils both in price and quality.

History Notes

Native to Spain.
