NORSAN OLIVE OIL
Polyphenol-rich organic virgin olive oil.
World best olive oil?
The olive oil which is used in our Total oil, Vegan oil and KIDs oil is produced of Oro del Desierto. The olive farmer, Rafael with his family, works according to strict ecological guidelinesolive. His excellent olive oil is winning top-awards on a regular basis. We feel proud that we are allowed to use this valued olive oil in our products. Just the best is good enough.
The olive groves are located in a small valley in Tabernas (Almería) in southern Spain near Málaga, where there are more than 3000 hours of sunshine per year and the dry, stable climate leads to this special product. The geographical location is also unique, as it is irrigated directly from the mountain range (Sierra Nevada).
“Oro del Desierto” is not only organic and rich in polyphenols, it also tastes fantastic – with a slight hint of pepper, like all good olive oils.
The olives are pressed immediately after the harvest, typically within 2 hours.
The olive oil with high polyphenol content is selected. Polyphenols from olives are important antioxidants and the polyphenols protect the delicate omega-3 fatty acids on their way through our body. They ensure that the omega-3 fatty acids arrive undamaged where they are needed.
We visit Rafael regularly on his olive grove. Not only because it is beautiful there, but because we think that a personal and good relationship is beneficial for ensuring a high and constant quality.

The Science of Olive Oil: Proven Health Benefits
Olive oil has held a high value in all nutritional philosophies for about 6,000 years, with countless studies proving its health benefits. However, not all olive oil is created equal. A high-quality oil is defined by several key factors:
- Organic Cultivation: Guarantees a system that respects the environment and soil fertility, working entirely without chemical products.
- Early Harvest: The harvest should be early and processed within a single day. The shorter the time until pressing, the higher the quality.
- High Polyphenol Content: This process ensures a high level of antioxidants (polyphenols). The more polyphenols, the better the protection against free radicals.
- Exceptional Taste: Finally, a high-quality olive oil should, of course, taste great.
