Learn More About the Verde Esmeralda Brand

Verde Esmeralda is more than just a brand of Extra Virgin Olive Oil — it is an expression of history, art, nature, and passion. From the heart of Jaén, Spain — one of the most renowned olive-growing regions in the world — comes a unique concept that blends ancestral cultivation principles with innovation, aesthetics, and deep respect for the land. Its mission is clear: to offer the world a legendary olive oil, crafted for the most refined and demanding palates.

The inspiration behind Verde Esmeralda comes from the gemological art of Emerald Oiling, a technique traditionally used to enhance the clarity and appearance of emeralds. Embracing that same philosophy of care, purity, and beauty, the brand has created a collection of oils presented in exclusive bottles inspired by three iconic gemstones: emerald, sapphire, and red diamond.

These bottles do not contain real gemstones — their design simply pays tribute to the shape, color, and symbolic value of these precious stones, conveying a sense of luxury, exclusivity, and elegance.

A Brand with Purpose

Verde Esmeralda represents a vision where tradition and technology come together to create an exceptional product. Under the leadership of D. Samuel López Fernández, the brand reflects a deep admiration for the land, for aesthetics, and for the art of doing things right.

Each bottle contains not only an outstanding Extra Virgin Olive Oil, but also a story of dedication, care, and a strong connection to nature.
