My follow-up video goes live in a few days: stay tuned for my EXTRA VIRGIN TIPS & MYTHS… how to buy olive oil, how to store it, and how best to use it.
Will wait for it.. Your videos helped me overcome boredom during this quarantine.. Hope you are safe from COVID-19... Wishing you well all the way from the Philippines..
Congratulations for the video! Thank you for showing Andalusia to the world in such a nice way. We produce extra virgin olive oil in this area and you explain it very easy and clear for the people to understand the effort behind extra virgin olive oil 👏👏👏
Maybe the oldest Olive, trees in Lebanon, but not in the world!. I have seen orchids of olive trees in Israel, that are before Babylon, and are national monument really something else.
I love this video. My family produces olive oil for personal consumptions (Palestine) and I always laughed at high end chefs pouring what seems to be triple filtered bleached half a year old oil and call it "Extra Virgin". They have no idea what extra virgin olive oil is! Me personally I love unfiltered extra virgin olive oil. Right from the fruit from the first press as is. This kind of oil has the best flavor ever. Fun fact, we have a generic term to describe some old olive trees locally as "Romanya" (Roman). Not because the Romans brought it, but because the tree was there during when the Roman empire took over the land! Some old trees those are.
@@Stephen_Strange "Romanya" or "Romeya" which is the Arabic adjective equivalent to "Roman". We this to describe trees that are a couple of thousands years old or in other words during the time when Roma took over Palestine (Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, etc.)
As a Spaniard living abroad, this video filled me with so much nostalgia. Thankfully Spanish extra virgin is readily available here in Sweden so there’s always a bottle oh EV from Jaén in my pantry. Nicole, the production value of your videos has skyrocketed lately. Congrats!!
Rafa, thank you so much!! I'm so glad I could deliver a little piece of home to you. With all that Spain is going through lately, editing this video became very poignant for us. It became our love letter to Spain. I hope your family back home is well. Stay well!
@@bbbnnuuuhgg7016 it’s really annoying to be fake I hate people that do that, I don’t hate her videos their actually pretty interesting it’s just her personality and how fake she is annoying.
OMG, I'm from Lebanon and my dad has so much olive trees in the south Lebanon. And that's why I'm watching it. And when I heard my country I was shocked how important is my country to Olive Tree
If your father has many olive trees in southern Lebanon, you are a lucky man, and I congratulate him. We share a love for the olive tree and its oil. Greetings from Málaga, (Andalusia, Spain).
Thank you for your kind words David 😊. All I can say is my love for making these films is real - and given the resources, we want to make as many as we can.
Finally, a channel that speaks very clearly about the good uses of olive oil and above all the Spanish origin of its world production, even from another country that claims to have its origin and really all they do is just bottle the Spanish olive oil and put a label of their country as if they were their own.

I’m an archaeologist specializing in ancient organics, including olive oil and oil based unguents. Superb presentation - just subscribed. Greetings from Greece! 🇬🇷
The oldest Tunisian olive tree is located at Echraf, a village close to Haouaria. What makes it impressive is that its roots cover a surface that approximates sixteen square meters and its trunk has a six meter circumference. Regarding its age, it overtakes 2500 years. Correct me if i am wrong. After all hope we are lovers of the 13 Godness of Olympus The True, Alithia!
we often go to my grandfather farm to harvest olives to make the oil in holidays ; it s exhausting but also an enjoyable work , greetings from Tunisia !
Aah yes, after what seems like a decade of waiting, finally a new HDIG episode. One of the best so far too. Your channel is like an oasis of refreshment in a desert of doom and gloom. Thanks Nicole & Mark, et al...
@@TrueFoodTV You guys totally deserve it. Looking forward to more HDIG/HIIM food vids in 2020.

Have also worked as a cameraman, sound & lighting guy and video editor for a community TV station, so I appreciate fully the expertise and skill that goes into the technical side of your videos.)
Brilliant mini-documentary we can call it on Olive oil the most cherished plant right from ancient times. The presenter is an exuberant communicator, with well-researched comments based on history, agriculture, and food chemistry. I appreciate your informative video, Nicole. great job keep it up in your domain of specialization. Your other video on Italian lemons was excellent too and the energy in your communication was amazing and gripping for the viewers.
Wonderful presentation and production about olives and olive oil! I returned from Corsica and learned that the Greeks travelled the Mediterranean and planted olive trees as they travelled. Wild olive trees were present in Corsica but with small fruits.

I have to admit, not only are these videos educational but I love the joy and enthusiasm Nicole puts forth in her documentaries. I could watch or listen to her all day long, -for ever !!! So, here's the deal, I'm your biggest fan, so you're just going to have to humbly accept this reality and put me on your favorite fan list. Keep it real.
This is the first of your videos that I am watching. Just after a few seconds, I clicked "subscribe". You have the most positive and happy vibe within you. My love and respect.
I have subscribed to this channel years ago and have watched almost all of their videos (some of them multiple times). It has NEVER disappointed me about its contents, the ways that the videos were produced, Nicole's tone/expressions, research and everything else. Nicole and her teams have done a great job, and the channel definitely deserves a lot more subscribers and views. Stay well and healthy!
My dad was an American soldier who was seriously injured fighting in Germany in WWII. They sent him to the south of France to be a company clerk because he really could not be in combat anymore. He talked of standing in the south of France and pulling olives off of branches (and eating them) from trees growing in Monaco (off limits to US soldiers in WWII). He never tasted olives before being in the war, but loved them the rest of his life.
I hope he wasn't eating it right off of the tree, not a single person on this planet does that, because they are incredibly bitter and first need to go through a process of removing that bitterness and/or flavouring. The extra virgin oil extracted from them is another thing, it gets a rounded flavour from that bitterness.
I’ve learned a lot from your videos. After long hours working in the office, I am immersed in nature/agriculture virtually thanks to your videos. Thank you so much, Nicole and your team! Looking forward to more and more videos.
I've been to Jaen and visited a huge Olive oil co-op. This video is spot on and for a short format its the most informative I have ever seen. Congratulations, great work!
Oh my! This woman! The constant demonstrative hand movements with each word. The constant head bobbles to add stress to the words. The intense facial expressions to show how deeply each and every word affects the soul. WAH!!! Enough already.
I just discovered this channel from a family member. You are very underrated and I appreciate the high levels of effort and research put into each and every vid. I can tell you genuinely enjoy doing this. Reminds me of Safiya Nygaard in some ways (I don’t have much frame of reference, so idk if it’s an entirely accurate connection). I like how unique, genuine, and expressive you are in your explanations! The family member I am referring to said your way of explaining things reminded him of me, which I take as a big compliment! Definitely gonna watch more vids from this channel, its piqued my interest and now I’m following.
This video is so informative, helpful. To my surprise, the whole process is demanding, laborious which need significant people to have it done. Im appreciate your ekip, effort to get this video published.
Great video. We pick our own olives here on Hvar island in Croatia. It is exactly the same process but just a much smaller scale. This year we picked 280kg of fruit from the 14 trees we maintain and got about 30 liters. Fresh oil is the best!
This is probably the best video on UA-cam that I've watched. The informative content is excellent. The filming and sound are top notch and the enthusiasm and the way Nicole talks makes the viewer wanting to watch more of her videos. Magnifico y excelente!
I'm planting an olive tree next week grown for 12 years in substrate from a cutting from San Antonio's oldest Spanish olive tree brought here by Franciscan friars in the 1740s. 😊
I now live in southern Spain and am in my fourth week of curing olives that I have foraged from roadside trees in my area, basically rogue olive trees. This is my first try at it. You are so passionate and knowledgeable about the olive fruit, I am convinced that just from watching this wonderful production that my olives will turn out as they should,... Thank you for your positive energy, the world could do with a few more of you👍

For this reason, the temperature of the olive milling and the entire process is closely monitored. And producers of high-quality oil use tanks inertised with nitrogen, so that the extra virgin olive oil is never in contact with oxygen in the air. The oil is bottled in dark glass bottles, or in cans (these are almost always 2.5-3-5 litres, small cans are not usually used in Spain).
I put olive oil on everything! Baking, cooking, including in place of butter on pancakes and waffles with syrup. My doctor said that olive oil ncreases HDL cholesterol (the good cholesterol). "Solo yo!" was awesome spirit.
I’m a Brit living in Andalucia, Spain. I was always lead to believe that Italian olive oil is the best in the world. Little did I know this is untrue and it’s all because of marketing that gave the lie that Italian was the best. Something like the Audi car. More style than substance. In the world competition for best olive oil, Spain and in particular the Jaén region is the best in the world. Out of the hundred best olive oils in the world, Spain had over 90% of the best and the top 9 in the world. We have 12 very mature olive trees on our land and press our own cold extra virgin olive oil. We think is the best in the world but we are biased!
Greek olive oil from the tree koroneiki in Greek soil is the best oil in the world and human history Search for it The piqual is also great but not excellent like koeoneiki
I think how productors filter the oil makes a big impact too. I am from Jaén (where she was) and I tried olive oil from Morocco and it was totally different. It had small bits inside and tasted more raw in a way because it was filtered less (I was told). It's another interesting way to make it your own way
South of Jaen, we had a storm the other night, and the wind floored most of my avocados. I took a large bag to Örgiva, and exchanged it for some fresh olive oil, which I´ve just tried, on a lump of local bread. Olive oil has a shelf life of two years, and the oil in the supermarkets is always a year old -- this was my first experience of fresh olive oil and it was very light and fragrant, with a lovely smooth taste. Olive trees need pruning regularly, keeping up with my dozen trees is enough for me, the sight of those acres of olives is a bit daunting. Saludos desde Las Alpujarra.
I know a little about this. I had family in the olive oil business. I’ve had the opportunity to run the olive harvester and also ran the press for 2 seasons. So I’ve seen the entire process from tree to bottle. You might be shocked on how violent the harvesting is. Sometimes the harvester will rip the entire tree out of the ground. It’s also amazing to me that some people will come from across the globe to be there for olive oil pressing. And olive oil fresh out of the press is pretty amazing. It has a bite to it.

I have to say that intro is a work of art. The beauty of the backdrop. Your own beauty, how your animated you are. The sweep of information ….. just remarkable. Very beautiful
This is the first video I have seen from this channel. I just subscribed to it as well because I look forward to viewing additional videos that are just as informative and interesting just like this one.
Thanks for the amazing video. I am Spanish and although I already know all what you explained, you did it so well and passionately that could not stop watching it! ☺️And yes, Spain is the first olive oil productor, with almost half of the world's production. Unfortunately we are not very good at marketing....congrats again to Nicole and the team for this great video
This video is fantastic. I loved it. Congratulations. You are an extraordinary host. The shooting and the postproduction is sublime. Great work. I'm your fan now.
Oh Nicole, I absolutely love this seeing where these beautiful Olive trees are grown and the process is sure I’m very interesting. I thank you for sharing this wonderful vlog . Spain is number one in olive oil. Thank you so much !!
The effort and research this channel puts in its content is just great! The narration is flawless with an easy explanation. Even being brought up in a non-agricultural background, I think just watching your videos would educate a lot about farming.
Here's something the world seems to have forgotten: How wonderful women look, when they dress modestly. High marks to the young presenter, in this documentary. She's very pretty.
wow... thats exceeded my expectation! i love this show. cant wait for next one. i love your intermission just now about why cold press.. 😂😂😂 and i envy you for tasting fresh pressed extra virgin olive. how i wish we could too... keep up the good work and keep safe guys! love you all....
By far the most beautiful and educational movie I have seen on youtube about how olives are harvested and olive oil is produced in my opinion. My father was born 80km to the east of Ubeda (province of Jaen), where this movie is shot, which is more mountainous therefore more labor intensive to harvest; resulting in even higher quality of extra virgin olive oil. Living in The Netherlands myself, I have started to import olive oil, to share this healthy product. Thank you for this great documentary!

She is! Love her on this series. She does sometimes give off culty come to Jesus vibes though.
This is probably the best video on UA-cam that I've watched. The informative content is excellent. The filming and sound are top notch and the enthusiasm and the way Nicole talks makes the viewer wanting to watch more of her videos. Magnifico y excelente!
thank you so much for the lovely comment!!
Great video...learned a lot...love her high energy!
I'm planting an olive tree next week grown for 12 years in substrate from a cutting from San Antonio's oldest Spanish olive tree brought here by Franciscan friars in the 1740s. 😊
For real?
Damn!
Wonderful ...let us know how the fruit harvest goes. Does olive do well in central Texas?
@@thomask940 Olives love caliche
So happy to see my region of Andalusia portrayed so kindly and well!! 💚🌿
Lucky you.
@@wanderingsoul1189 thank you Sir!
I love the passion in her eyes
I now live in southern Spain and am in my fourth week of curing olives that I have foraged from roadside trees in my area, basically rogue olive trees. This is my first try at it.
You are so passionate and knowledgeable about the olive fruit, I am convinced that just from watching this wonderful production that my olives will turn out as they should,... Thank you for your positive energy, the world could do with a few more of you👍
THATS STEALING !!!!!!
@@dannyho6786 Lol, how could you think of taking your own life because of porn addiction? Is there some kind of religious guilt involved? I just don’t see the big deal here, it’s just porn….
That’s like saying someone is addicted to exercise. Sure, everything can be taken a bit far, but give me a break.
I’m getting heavy tony robbins “pay me money for me to give you questionable advice” vibes.
One of the most amazing Video which I have ever seen. Her body language & her hands together emitting the real meaning of the words than speaking.
Thank you so much!
I don’t know how I missed this episode... perhaps the best one yet. I thought I knew about it but I learnt so much!
This channel is TV level quality. Not typical youtube channel..
UA-cam is better than TV nowadays
Yeah and that's the trouble UA-cam has become the new TV all the stupid repetition off advertising the lies ect ect
Age and heat do damage olive oil.
The best olive oil is the most fresh one.
For better quality during storage avoid subjecting to light
oxidation is the main factor that rises the acid levels, and degrades olive oil. heat just accelerates that, and sun light too
Yeah, but short of living in Spain, how do you get a fresh olive oil?
Sparkling host, most be a great exp to taste oil of this quali, straight out of the tube
For this reason, the temperature of the olive milling and the entire process is closely monitored. And producers of high-quality oil use tanks inertised with nitrogen, so that the extra virgin olive oil is never in contact with oxygen in the air. The oil is bottled in dark glass bottles, or in cans (these are almost always 2.5-3-5 litres, small cans are not usually used in Spain).
I put olive oil on everything! Baking, cooking, including in place of butter on pancakes and waffles with syrup. My doctor said that olive oil ncreases HDL cholesterol (the good cholesterol).
"Solo yo!" was awesome spirit.
I’m a Brit living in Andalucia, Spain. I was always lead to believe that Italian olive oil is the best in the world. Little did I know this is untrue and it’s all because of marketing that gave the lie that Italian was the best. Something like the Audi car. More style than substance.
In the world competition for best olive oil, Spain and in particular the Jaén region is the best in the world. Out of the hundred best olive oils in the world, Spain had over 90% of the best and the top 9 in the world. We have 12 very mature olive trees on our land and press our own cold extra virgin olive oil. We think is the best in the world but we are biased!
Greek olive oil from the tree koroneiki in Greek soil is the best oil in the world and human history
Search for it
The piqual is also great but not excellent like koeoneiki
Judging by the overall video quality, this channel should be filthy famous
I think how productors filter the oil makes a big impact too. I am from Jaén (where she was) and I tried olive oil from Morocco and it was totally different. It had small bits inside and tasted more raw in a way because it was filtered less (I was told). It's another interesting way to make it your own way
Improving every single video Nicole! Keep making this fantastic content and I will keep pressing (rather, crushing) the like button! Great job! 👍
I like what you did there Sterling! Thank you!
I'm a food process engineering student and I love this channel ❤️
The presentation of your material is a totally outstanding. its a feast for my eyes and senses, you are by far the best presenter on UA-cam
Been waiting for you guys! Welcome back with a stunning video as usual.
Welcome back! (And I say that to myself too!). Thank you
The passion with which she presents is infectious.
This video was very much aesthetically pleasing
The way she explained the details of olive ...wow...I'm sure I've become hers and Olive's fan from today.🤪.. love from India 😘🇮🇳
South of Jaen, we had a storm the other night, and the wind floored most of my avocados. I took a large bag to Örgiva, and exchanged it for some fresh olive oil, which I´ve just tried, on a lump of local bread.
Olive oil has a shelf life of two years, and the oil in the supermarkets is always a year old -- this was my first experience of fresh olive oil and it was very light and fragrant, with a lovely smooth taste.
Olive trees need pruning regularly, keeping up with my dozen trees is enough for me, the sight of those acres of olives is a bit daunting. Saludos desde Las Alpujarra.
I know a little about this. I had family in the olive oil business. I’ve had the opportunity to run the olive harvester and also ran the press for 2 seasons. So I’ve seen the entire process from tree to bottle. You might be shocked on how violent the harvesting is. Sometimes the harvester will rip the entire tree out of the ground. It’s also amazing to me that some people will come from across the globe to be there for olive oil pressing. And olive oil fresh out of the press is pretty amazing. It has a bite to it.
So was your father Popeye?

This is a very well informed presentation. So refreshing to see a quality video based on good research and excellently presented
This is a work of art. You guys are really taking it up a notch. 😊💕
Thank you so much 😀
I have to say that intro is a work of art. The beauty of the backdrop. Your own beauty, how your animated you are. The sweep of information ….. just remarkable. Very beautiful
absolutely in love with the passion that the host shares for Olives, and now I know why!
Yet another amazing episode. So much information I would have never thought about. So very well done! Love it!! ❤️
Thanks so much Dwayne. Hope you're well. 🙏
Nicole is ready for the big screen...she is a truly professional documentarist
Oh god no, the less the better - she just buggered up an olive doc
Now every time I look at my EVOO bottle, I’m going to think about this video and be very grateful. Gd is Great! Tyyy
I love that! Thank you!
So Blessed to learn from your channel.... congratulations....
This is the first video I have seen from this channel. I just subscribed to it as well because I look forward to viewing additional videos that are just as informative and interesting just like this one.
Just found this channel, and I am glad I did! Super educational, informative and fun! Had no idea Spain was the world's olive oil capital!
Love the passion of all this and that line about "they aren't just Olive Farmers, they are Stewards of the environment". Yes!
Thanks for the amazing video. I am Spanish and although I already know all what you explained, you did it so well and passionately that could not stop watching it! ☺️And yes, Spain is the first olive oil productor, with almost half of the world's production. Unfortunately we are not very good at marketing....congrats again to Nicole and the team for this great video
she has so much enthusiasm when she speaks, i love it
This video is fantastic. I loved it. Congratulations. You are an extraordinary host. The shooting and the postproduction is sublime. Great work. I'm your fan now.
Oh Nicole,
I absolutely love this seeing where these beautiful Olive trees are grown and the process is sure I’m very interesting.
I thank you for sharing this wonderful vlog .
Spain is number one in olive oil.
Thank you so much !!
Spain is number one in total olive oil production. Claims of number one of any other nature, such as quality of olive oil, are a different story.
I love her. She's just explaining but it seems she's having an extempo speech 😁
The effort and research this channel puts in its content is just great! The narration is flawless with an easy explanation.
Even being brought up in a non-agricultural background, I think just watching your videos would educate a lot about farming.
EXCELLENT JOB WELL DONE 👏 ✔️ THANKS A MILLION FOR GIVING US A VERY CLEAR IDEA ABOUT THE WHOLE PROCESS ... FROM A TO Z ...
I love your presentation style, so engaging.
Here's something the world seems to have forgotten: How wonderful women look, when they dress modestly. High marks to the young presenter, in this documentary. She's very pretty.
wow... thats exceeded my expectation! i love this show. cant wait for next one. i love your intermission just now about why cold press.. 😂😂😂 and i envy you for tasting fresh pressed extra virgin olive. how i wish we could too... keep up the good work and keep safe guys! love you all....
Thank you so much for your love. Stay safe and be well.
Your content is worthy enough to be a discovery show.

Nicole, you're a terrific commentator. I love how expressive you are when you get excited about food. ;)
By far the most beautiful and educational movie I have seen on youtube about how olives are harvested and olive oil is produced in my opinion. My father was born 80km to the east of Ubeda (province of Jaen), where this movie is shot, which is more mountainous therefore more labor intensive to harvest; resulting in even higher quality of extra virgin olive oil. Living in The Netherlands myself, I have started to import olive oil, to share this healthy product. Thank you for this great documentary!
This made my day. Thank you!
