The quality is so important in the oil that we sacrifice a greater yield of olives for higher quality in the oil extracted from them. They are harvested early for getting a higher quality and more intense aroma.

Acushla Gold Edition
Acushla was born from the passion of a man, the strength of an emotion that would allow several generations from the same family to bond around the olive oil business. The olive tree, by its beauty, spirituality, resistance and longevity, has always fascinated Joaquim Moreira, a fashion and textile entrepreneur, who, having spent most of his professional life in big metropolis, decided to cherish an alternative project strictly connected with nature. The initiative to take this path came from the need to “temper” the everyday life with a business connected to the land and the slower rhythm that it determines. Acushla is a word of Celtic origin that means “beat of my heart”. The name choice arose from the search for a single expression able to translate the whole concept and emotion associated with this project which has materialized in 2006. It was in Quinta do Prado, Vila Flor, located in Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro region, that Joaquim Moreira, after much effort in the study on areas with high potential for olive oil production in Portugal, found the ideal site for producing an outstanding olive oil. This estate, with 14 hectares of centenarian olive trees and 200 hectares of new olive trees, has in total approximately 70.000 olive trees. When maturity is reached the expected production of olive oil will be around 350.000 litres, making it one of the largest organic production areas in the region of Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro. Being the environmental concern and sustainability one of the cornerstones of Acushla, we have elected organic farming, where the growth of the olive trees is conducted with the utmost respect for the established procedures of organic production, foreseen by the European and American legislation. This production includes the use of farming techniques that respect the natural life cycles and reduce environmental impact. It also leads to several slow and expensive procedures, mainly the maintenance of the fertilization of the soils and the respect for phytosanitary and fertilization principles; it is prohibited the use of chemical synthesis products.

Let us introduce our family, the people behind all this. We, the Karabelas family, are fourth-generation olive growers, cultivating more than 6000 family-owned olive trees. The average age of these trees is over a century, in olive groves all over the slopes and the Valley, surrounding Ancient Olympia. And we are not alone, in this!

And we are very proud to help our local economy and give reasons to the younger ones to stay here and prosper. This team has two pillars: – A non-negotiable focus on premium fine food and extra virgin olive oil production, guided by quality, not quantity, and – A profound respect for the environment, adopting only sustainable-friendly cultivation methods.

Olympia, our hometown, is a place that everybody knows, wherever they may live. A top priority destination for many, it is blessed with thousands of visitors, every year. We planned this lifetime project with two ideas in mind: We wanted it to be an innovative, state-of-the-art premium extra virgin olive oil production mill with top-quality products exported all over the world, and An undisputed “must-see and visit” place for all olive oil lovers and healthy-living goers, of all nationalities. Forgive our lack of modesty but our vision is simple: we want our “Olive Temple” and our products to be the happiest, the most vivid memory someone has after his visit to Olympia. Or even from his trip to Greece! And we know exactly how to accomplish this mission: it is not our first time! Actually, we have been doing this for more than tens of thousands of times, every year!
