Located in the town of Albelda, Almazara Valle del Iregua started its activities in 2008 with the purpose of encouraging olive tree growing in the Iregua Valley. The García Cámara family started its olive operations by planting 20 hectares of organic Arbequina, from which they make their own oil. Sold under the Candor and Santificetur brands, they received an award at the Ecotrama 2009 organic oil international competition; a recognition of the good work of Almazara Valle del Iregua during its first year of existence.

Tours include a route throughout the olive-oil mill and a tasting of our oils. At the end of the tour, a lunch is offered with Rioja Wine. The price of the tour also includes a bottle of CANDOR brand organic oil.

There is a shop at the mill where you can purchase all our oils.

Part of the French Route to Compostela, 15 km from Logroño, stand the remains of the cliff top castle of Clavijo where according to legend, there was a battle during which the Apostle St James appeared on his white horse, to support the Christian troops.

The tale tells how the battle was planned by Ramiro I to put an end to the shameful Tribute of the Hundred Maidens which had to be handed over each year to the Emir of Cordoba under a non-aggression pact. The intervention of Santiago inspired the Christian victory and in gratitude, Ramiro I granted in Calahorra on 25 May 834, the Vow of Santiago requiring all the peasants of the north of the Iberian peninsula to pay a tithe in the form of grain to the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela

Located in the heart of the Ocón Valley, Almazara Hejul is an olive-oil mill operating in the town of Galilea since 2003. The Fernández Santa Ana family was one of the first in La Rioja to focus on Rioja olive oil, creating a company which produces, processes and markets of its own product. Organic and protected by a designation of origin, Hejul oil has received awards for its quality at several national and international competitions. The good work of the olive-oil mill also attracts hundreds of olive growers each year who make use of the third party toll pressing service during the season.
