There are olives… and then there are Gordal olives.
Grown in the sun-drenched province of Seville, Andalusia, Gordal means “the fat one” — a name that perfectly reflects their generous size and remarkable flesh-to-pit ratio. These are among the largest Spanish table olives, prized for their crisp bite and delicate, slightly buttery flavor.
According to the International Olive Council, Spain is the world’s leading producer of table olives, with Andalusia at the heart of traditional cultivation and curing methods.
Traditional Craft by Losada
Produced by Losada, a family company with over 50 years of experience in Spanish olive craftsmanship, these Gordal olives are traditionally brined to preserve texture and natural flavor. The result is an olive that is clean, balanced, and refreshingly elegant.
Unlike heavily seasoned olives, Gordal olives shine in their purity — making them exceptionally versatile.
