Cortesano
Cortesano is a company in Cortes de Baza (Granada province) born of a desire to preserve the cultural identity and the natural environment of the area where this wonderful extra virgin olive oil originates. It is “green” pressed (early harvest) and regenerative for soil and landscape.
Using regenerative agricultural techniques in a beautiful enclave, Cortesano proposes “to return to the practices of our grandparents together with modern methods,” in order to preserve the region and move its economy forward with high quality regenerative production.
And with these objectives they have managed to create an olive oil of the highest quality while committed to nature and future generations in the area.
What does Re-Generation mean to you? And what are you going to do about it?
It has become clear that intensive conventional agriculture and the ways we have treated the land over the last few decades are responsible for the current soil, water and climate crises.
But if people were the problem, could they also be the solution? Can regenerative agricultural practices turn the tide in the fight against the degradation of both soil and rural life?
Inspired by Regeneration’s efforts in the Spanish Altiplano, the first batch of a novel almond butter flavor was born right where it all began: at the Junquera estate. Before long the jars were empty, and so the great grind began…!
