The Spanish oil fairytale
Spring is sprouting and so is the garden at Mose Allé. We have a lot of small berry shrubs, fruit trees and other plants, that were planted last year, and we really hope that we will be able to go out and gather a little fruit during the summer. Unfortunately we probably have to wait a couple of years. On the other hand we discovered the other day that a daffodil is popping up, so we hope it will come out soon.

Ecological olive oil
The head of the firm, Henrik, has visited the south of Spain several times, because one of his friends lives there. He has become aware of the Spanish olive oil and he has tasted his way to the best one: Verde Salud, which means Green Health in Spanish. Together with a Spanish business connection, Henrik has, under the name Mancilla Y Wagner, therefore imported the oil to Denmark, where it soon will be possible to buy the golden drops at the web shop at Nemlig.com.

The extra virgin olive oil is cold pressed of olives that are grown at the hills in the protected nature reserve Sierra Mágina. The nature reserve is situated at the Jáen province in Andalucía in the south of Spain. A little less than half of the area of the province is planted with olive trees and the growth is predominantly aimed at the production of oil.

The oil is ecologic as no pesticides or fertilizers are allowed. Control with the production of olives is carried out both by the authorities in Andalusia and in Europe. Furthermore it contributes to the quality of the securing, that the growth is taking place at Sierra Mágina, as stays at the park are underlying strict rules for both tourists and olive farmers.

The picking of the olives is entirely carried out by manual power and without the use of machines for harvesting. Afterwards the pure oil of the Picual kind of olives is pressed to extra virgin olive oil to keep all the flavors and pheromones. The Picual sort is appreciated all over Spain, as it can stand very high heating. That makes it especially suitable for frying, but it is also really good for salads or for whatever other purpose you like to use oil. Picual has a high content of polyphenols, which is a type of antioxidants, which has many beneficial effects for your health. The oil is available in cans of 1000 ml, 2,5 litres or 5 litres.

Two-coloured shoes
But we have more than business on the programme at the firm. We have just arranged a bowling night for everyone at the office, and we are looking forward to put on the two-coloured shoes with smooth soles and throw balls towards the bowling pins. Afterwards we are having an Italian buffet, so it is bound to be an amusing evening. Of course the person with most strikes, spares and points has the right to mock, so it is to be hoped, that it is a person with good manners who wins.
