Passeite

Passeite Passeite, Portuguese olive oil from Central Portugal. Available for farmtours and olive oil tastings In 2005 the Passeite grove started to produce olives.

Passeite is a word blend from “Azeite da familia Passos” we used within the family when we started making olive oil. With the opening of an olive oil themed tavern in Coimbra, Passeite got more meaningful as Coimbra is the “passing by” city on your way from Porto to Lisbon or vice versa. Unfortunately the tavern has closed during and after pandemic as it seemed impossible to manage both anymore. T

he area and climate is ideal for keeping olive trees. Coimbra area is one of the oldest olive oil producing areas and was already producing back in the Roman period. Conímbriga is one of the largest and best preserved Roman settlements in Portugal. Conímbriga lies a little walk from our farm.From 2015 onwards the hobby turned into a business. The love of the hobby was strong enough for Marije & Gui to move to the farm and give up careers in the Netherlands to pursue making high quality olive oil and teaching all about it. We have more ancients groves and expanded the businessas well to other parts in Portugal. We strongly believe in sharing our love for food and nature so please feel welcome for a tour and tasting and learn more about Condeixa area.

Did you know there are competitions in olive oil like wine? Specialists smell and sip the oils to qualify how good they are. The most important analysis to determine if the olive oil is extra virgin is not the acidity test but an organoleptic test. Fermentation or bad milling/pressing practices result in a lower quality. if you win a medal at a competition it means your oil sample is tested by tasting specialists and it is of excellent quality. It's a good way to gain market exposure in a specific country. Our right now is part of the 5th edition of the competition and tasting many oils from all over the world..

What do you want on your plate? This is just an example but unfortunately our area, is full of ignorant people thinking or wanting to solve problems in a wrong way..Wrong way for sure as our trees have more pollinated flowers than theirs. But how to stop a generation indoctrinated by the fact that these solutions are the only way forward and are less work? The only way we see is patience as they are with age. But it's frustrating, we tried everything, education, setting an example, trying to help but some people just don't want to listen to change for better health and better soils. But you consumers can, you can set the example and boycott this type of agriculture. Know what you eat and where you buy it from....
