It is under the same sky, on the same curves of the river, with the same warm breeze at the end of summer and the same cold winter days, on the same terraces, with the same knowledge and tradition, it is in the same wine-growing Douro that is born the intense and fruity olive oil from Casa da Oliveira Brava.

Casa da Oliveira Brava, founded more than four generations, is located in a hillside area and enjoys a unique view of the scenic beauty of the oldest and most famous wine region in the world and World Heritage, the Douro Valley.

Olive growing is assumed to be an age-old tradition, very characteristic of our Mediterranean landscape and culture. It has always appeared for various uses and purposes, in food, medicine, cosmetics, religious rituals, among others, such as simple lighting by the lamp. Olive oil production has always been a family activity, at least 4 generations ago we had our own oil press for the extraction of oil. Where also, other farmers resorted to extracting their oil. Unfortunately, in the late 1960s, the oil press was destroyed by a storm followed by a water storm. At that time, a tibial and almost abandoned phase began for my family, at least in the form and dedication that until then was dedicated to olive growing, which only around 2013 experienced a turnaround. In 2013 I decided taking over only the family's olive groves and, meanwhile, buying other olive groves, I started to outline a strategy for the launch of my family's olive oil brand. I started working to get the best olive oil that the Douro region could give.

Casa da Oliveira Brava is dedicated to the cultivation of olive trees and the production of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from centenary olive groves, planted in the schist terraces of the Douro, taking advantage of the microclimate of the region. The culture of olive oil is assumed by Casa da Oliveira Brava as part of its culture, tradition and soul, which it values, preserves and preserves, with guarantee of purity, quality and excellence. From the olive groves of Casa da Oliveira Brava, where the Cobrançosa, Verdeal, Madural, Galega, Coimbrã/Coimbreira and Moleirinha qualities predominate, among others, the olives are harvested manually, with the right degree of maturity, with the maximum of care, to guarantee its good condition.
