Quinta dos Chapaceiros is a family based company, located on the municipality of Covilhã founded in 1985, with 40 years of experience and tradition in the production of local and traditional Serra da Estrela’s products. The main focus of the project is the sustainable production and respect for the Environment.
Traditionally cultivated at the foothill of the mountain, this olive oil benefits from a favorable climate, with higher temperatures that define de southeastern slope of the Serra da Estrela. The fertile soils of the Cova da Beira, that follow the banks of one of Portugal’s major rivers, the Zêzere, are the result of the Estrela’s long and rich geological history. Over the centuries, traditional farming techniques have enabled the production of a superior class of olive oil, obtained directly from the olive, preserving its full flavor and authenticity.
