Top 3 of World Best Olive Oils 2024/2025

Three Spanish Extra Virgin olive oils that together formed the complete Top 3 of World's Best Olive Oils 2024/2025. An exceptional tasting set of three internationally awarded oils, each with a completely distinct character.

The world elite of the 2024/2025 harvest

In the 2024/2025 harvest year, the international ranking of World's Best Olive Oils was completely dominated by three Spanish olive oils. Rincón de la Subbética BIO took first place, followed by Oro Bailén Picual BIO and Knolive Epicure. Three producers that have belonged to the leading names in the international olive oil world for many years.

Together, they create an extraordinary tasting experience. The intensely green Hojiblanca of Rincón, the powerful and exceptionally pure Picual of Oro Bailén and the complex style of Knolive show just how different absolute top-quality olive oils can be.

Rincón de la Subbética is the organic Hojiblanca from Almazaras de la Subbética in Priego de Córdoba. An intensely green, aromatic olive oil with notes of green tomato, thyme, mint, artichoke and almond. Fruitiness, bitterness and pepperiness follow each other beautifully. In 2024/2025, this oil ranked number 1 in the world.

Oro Bailén Picual BIO is an organic Extra Virgin olive oil made from 100% Picual from Jaén. It has the characteristic green profile of this variety with freshly cut grass, green tomato and almond. Powerful yet exceptionally controlled, with fruitiness, bitterness and pepperiness beautifully balanced. In 2024/2025, it achieved second place.

Knolive Epicure completes this global Top 3. An intensely fruity and complex Extra Virgin olive oil from Priego de Córdoba, made from very early-harvested olives. The flavour includes artichoke, walnut, almond, green herbs and unripe fruit, with a refined transition from soft to bitter and peppery. Knolive was already ranked number 1 in the world in 2017/2018 and once again reached the absolute elite in 2024/2025 with third place.

What makes this set special is not only the ranking. You can taste three very different interpretations of top Spanish olive oil side by side. From the aromatic Hojiblanca of Rincón, through the distinctive Picual of Oro Bailén, to the layered and complex style of Knolive.

This makes the set interesting not only for those who want to taste the official Top 3 of 2024/2025, but also as an excellent way to discover which style of premium Extra Virgin olive oil best suits your personal taste.
