Prices of arbequina oil

Extra virgin olive oil from early harvest is a unique oil. Its price is higher due to the complexity of its collection which is in turn more expensive than oil obtained from more mature olives. To produce early harvest olive oil, about 12 kilos of olives are needed compared to normal extra virgin olive oil, which requires around 4 kilos of olives. This makes early harvest extra virgin olive oil more expensive. If we add to this a poor harvest due to weather conditions, olive production decreases and the price rises.
