History

Since the time of the first kings of Portugal, Santarém has been considered one of the main olive oil producing centres.

The origin of these oils dates back to the 18th century, when the traditional varieties of the region were altered and the more pest-resistant Galega variety became the predominant variety.

More recently, in the last century, regional olive growing came to prominence thanks to the writer and historian Alexandre Herculano, who introduced some innovations in olive oil production.

Varieties

The oils are produced with the varieties Galega, Lentisca, Cobrançosa in DOP Ribatejo.
