Two weeks ago, we wrapped up the 2025 harvest and what a harvest it has been. A devoted team, exceptional weather and an abundance of beautiful fruit made this one of the most remarkable harvest seasons in Querubi’s history.
A typical harvest at Querubi takes 7 to 9 days with a full team. This year, however, the sheer volume of olives kept us going for 16 days. We are deeply grateful to our incredible team and to the many friends who joined us along the way. Your hands, your energy, and your good spirits carried us all through.
Harvest season on the farm is always intense. Even after ten years, there are surprises that keep us alert: machines that break down need quyick fixing, sudden shifts in weather, the occasional illness. We aim to pick our olives while they’re still green, which adds some pressure to move quickly. Yet despite these challenges, the 2025 harvest has been our most extraordinary so far, abundant in quantity and exceptional in quality.
The laboratory results confirm this. Our oil’s acidity measured twice at an exceptional 0.08 %, the lowest ever recorded at Querubi. As many of you know, acidity is the most reliable measure of olive oil quality, the lower the acidity, the higher the quality. At 0.08 %, this year’s oil is truly rare in quality.
Another key quality marker is the polyphenol content of the oil. Our 2025 oil tested at over 600 mg/kg, placing Querubi among the highest-quality olive oils in the World.
Tasting panels echoed the lab results. The 2025 oil shows the signature herbal aromas you know from Querubi, lifted by elegant floral and fruity notes. The peppery finish is softer and more refined this year, resulting in a beautifully balanced profile.
The 2025 oil is now lightly filtered, bottled, and shipped to our warehouses in the UK and France and is now available online and from most of our retailers. If you visit our website, you’ll notice a new look as we have just launched a refreshed version.
We look forward to sharing more news soon and can’t wait for you to taste this exceptional vintage. Please feel free to send us your thoughts on the oil or the new website.
With gratitude, The Querubi Team
