For generations, the name Veá has represented the highest standards in olive cultivation and the production of excellent extra virgin olive oils.

Today, members of the Veá family continue to uphold these principles and strive to surpass these standards each year. Veá has developed new extraction methods while rigorously preserving traditional harvesting and selection methods. Our goal remains to select only the finest oils for bottling under our L'Estornell, VEÀ and Les Costes brands. Today, our oils rank among the best in the world.

Several combined factors determine the quality and characteristics of a good olive oil: the olive variety, the soil, the harvest, the climate, the care taken when collecting the olives, the skill of the miller and the art of “coupage”, or blending the olive juices. Above all, however, there is the dedication of the producer and a persistent commitment to adhering to their own principles.

The unquestionable integrity of the Veá family is reflected in every step in the creation and marketing of its fine oils.
