Red Baron's Azeite – The story of our olive oil
Red Baron's Azeite was born out of the passion of four friends for high-quality olive oil. These friends, who share not only a love for olives but also a deep appreciation for good food, fine drinks, and captivating Portuguese culture, wanted to bring the exceptional olive oil they had discovered to the world. The journey began in the olive groves of the village of Orca, where handpicked, half-ripe, juicy olives are the key to this oil’s top-tier quality. However, Red Baron's Azeite is not just a premium olive oil—it’s also a story of how the finest quality and a laid-back attitude can go hand in hand. The shared passion of the four friends for superior olive oil is combined with the joy of creating and a fun, effortless style that is reflected in every bottle.
The name "Red Baron" comes from a charming red car, the "Red Baron," which has chauffeured our four friends through Portugal’s culinary adventures and cultural explorations. Red Baron also symbolizes our way of doing things: boldly, yet with a relaxed approach. As this iconic car races from the olive groves to the press, it represents not just top-quality olive oil but also friendship and the joy of working together. The journey from olive to oil begins with traditional methods, but it is infused with a modern, flexible way of working—genuinely enjoyable and without unnecessary rigidity.
Now, this unique, high-quality olive oil has been brought to Finland by the Red Baron, where previously such quality Portuguese oil was unavailable. Red Baron's Azeite brings the authentic taste of Portugal straight to your table, and every drop tells a story of passion, quality, and the power of friendship—in its own laid-back way!
