Braikate Olive oil Mill
In Lebanon this small beautiful country, we have planted, loved, and cared for olive trees. We have set out to establish a plant that combines the long Lebanese history and tradition of olive oil making, we have learned by experience, how to choose the best olives and how to extract their oil.
First, the olives are handpicked and transported in plastic boxes to the mill site. The olives are then placed in the hopper, then up to the washing machine of the production line. The clean olives are passed up to the crusher to be crushed then down into the malaxers after the proper time under controlled conditions the paste is pumped into decanters where oil is separated from the water & solids, then out to collecting tank then to the vertical separator which is the final stage of the process.
There's oil and excellent oil.
There's olive oil and extra virgin olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is rich in nutrition as a result of strictly controlling multiple factors from hand picking and during the extraction process.

To get excellent extra virgin oil, the olives need to be controlled from the field through transportation to the processing. Only the oil with special characteristics can be called extra virgin olive oil.
