Heirs to a historical product

Molí Coloma was founded
on the rich heritage
of olive growing in Catalonia.

Our product boasts centuries of history and tradition. We are heirs to all its attributes. Olive oil is culture.

The Molí Coloma oil mill is located in a privileged spot on a stretch of the Roman Via Augusta between Sant Sadurní and Gelida, on the banks of the river Anoia and at the foot of the mountain of Montserrat.

This cultural tradition is complemented by the delicate balance of the land, with its characteristic calcareous soils of pebbles and clay, and the Mediterranean climate, ideal to create this unique extra virgin olive oil.

The ancestral oil farming tradition was taken up by the Sumarroca family, who revived the Arbosana variety, originally from Penedès, and began to produce it together with Greece’s Koroneiki variety. A successful Mediterranean partnership through Arbequina, Arbosana and Koroneiki.

At Molí Coloma we are the past and we are the future. A future that must be shaped with the utmost respect for this incredible legacy.

A cornerstone of the Mediterranean diet

Extra virgin olive oil
is more than just
a part of our diet.

 

The Mediterranean diet is a lifestyle. A way of approaching food from the point of view freshness, proximity and seasonal produce. Mealtimes are not just about tasting dishes, but also about socialising. And tasting oil is also a way of sharing.

It is becoming increasingly common for chefs all over the world to use EVOO in their dishes. New healthy trends, fostering new eating habits and highlighting the virtues of the Mediterranean diet, have helped to make extra virgin olive oil a favourite on every table.

EVOO prevailed because of its flavour and properties. It brings exclusivity and harmony, as well as purity and subtlety, enhancing the flavour and texture of food.

Quality Attributes of the EVOO

High quality

Extra virgin olive oil impacts the senses. Just as music and dance do. It is recorded in the memory and knows how to state which part of the Mediterranean it is coming from and how it has been treated. 

In Molí Coloma we believe in respect for the land and the fruit. To foster the continuity to the natural process of the crop. Therefore, at the time of collection, no olives touch the ground. None takes more than 50 minutes to reach the mill. This preserves the properties of the fruit. Also, cold milling ensures maximum conservation.

Therefore, our Arbequina, Arbosana and Koroneiki olives express the purity and freshness of the variety. They never have oxidized flavors that allow producing oils without defects and of very low acidity.
