NEW YORK, July 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Carbonell Spain's number one olive oil Brand¹, is proud to announce their gold award win in June's annual prestigious DLGTestingCenter award in Frankfurt, Germany (June 30th 2018.) Spain is the world's leading olive oil producer² with 70% deriving from Andalusia, southern Spain, the birthplace of Carbonell.

The award represents the highest recognition in the analysis of the sensory quality of foods and beverages; conducted by Germany's internationally renowned DLG TestCenter - responsible for reviewing the quality of over 30,000 products annually.

To meet this demand, DLG has developed a scientifically recognized and exacting test methodology, officially certified in accordance with ISO and DIN.

These internationally recognized tests are used in many areas of food quality monitoring; and at the heart of these tests is the analysis of color, appearance, consistency, aroma – and of course most importantly, taste.

"The latest award wins highlight the virtue of a long-term strategy and vision that we have had for Carbonell," said Miguel de Jaime Guijarro Chief Commercial Officer from parent company Deoleo. "We identified multiple opportunities to enhance the credentials of the brand from quality to innovation. Our focus now, is to clearly communicate these elements to consumers, retailers and stakeholders."

With more than 150 years of history, the brand is now both a cherished and trusted part of Spanish cultural heritage; as well as a currently recognized award winner.

With 8 awards already in 2018 across its' Prestigio range (and a further 8 awards for the Magna Olivia range), the DLG win in Frankfurt, Germany ensures Carbonell's traditions in dining and hospitality continue to be passed on from one generation to the next.

"An olive oil wins awards because as we make it, we always have in mind the people who will be enjoying it," said Paula Barrocas, Global Quality Director. "Our olive oils aren't made to be kept on the shelf gathering dust, but to stay on the table, helping to create the good moments, the great memories. And when we win these awards, it means the awards are also yours."

It is an olive oil that's meant to be shared among loved ones and dear friends.
