MIGJORN: Joana de Cardona with Box (700 ml)

Joana de Cardona is a limited-edition extra virgin olive oil from the brand MIGJORN, made exclusively from Corbella olives, a rare and native variety from the regions of Bages and Solsonès in Catalonia, Spain.

Recovered from wild olive trees, Corbella is highly valued for its balanced and health-promoting profile. This oil, rich in polyphenols and oleocanthal, is produced using traditional, artisanal methods that honor quality and heritage.

It comes in a 700 ml glass bottle, beautifully packaged in a cylindrical illustrated case that protects it from light and heat. Its thoughtful presentation also makes it an ideal gift for those who appreciate fine cuisine.

A Bottle with a Story: Joana de Cardona

The name of this edition pays tribute to Joana de Cardona (1500–1564), the last heiress of the powerful Lords of Salt. Known as a generous and visionary duchess, Joana not only granted the local people access to the mills on her land, but also actively promoted olive oil production in Catalonia.

Her domains stretched from El Pallars to Les Garrigues, where olive groves shaped the landscape. Her legacy lives on in every drop of this oil, made from the very same variety that once grew on her lands: Corbella.
