Designation of Origin Olive Oil from Mallorca: A Seal of Quality and Tradition

Olive oil is one of the many gastronomic treasures of Mallorca, an island with a millenary tradition in producing this liquid gold. To ensure its authenticity and quality, Mallorca’s olive oil holds the Protected Designation of Origin (D.O.P.) recognition, a distinctive certification that guarantees its origin and exceptional properties.

What is the D.O. Oli de Mallorca?

The Designation of Origin Oli de Mallorca is a certification granted by the European Union, guaranteeing that the oil has been produced, processed, and bottled on the island under strict quality controls. This seal protects and promotes the authenticity of Mallorcan olive oil, ensuring that its distinctive characteristics remain unchanged.
