The Farm
The “Quinta Castelar” has been in the “Gomes dos Santos” family since the middle of the 19th century. My grandparents and my parents took care and developed the Quinta throughout decades. The current goal is modernization, in order to guarantee its sustainability for future generations but without forgetting tradition. Extra Virgin Olive Oil is one of the products of excellence that we want to enhance, with the creation of the brand and the launch of Azeite dos Santos Premium.
A Family Story
The vast majority of today's Olive grooves was already planted by my grandparents, who launched themselves into the adventure of agriculture, expanding the farm to its present 42 hectares. My father, a Law Judge, since early on conciliated with his career, the passion and arduous task of keeping the Quinta alive. Along with the Vineyard were mainly the Almond trees and the Olive grooves that allowed this continuity and that remains as the cornerstone of the farm.
My mother, guardian of the family and name of the agricultural company "Herdeiros de Maria Amélia Dias de Castro Fernandes" always accompanied and supported my father in these designs. Now, it is up to other generations to continue this history.

Não há nada mais satisfatório que chegar ao fim de um dia de trabalho e comer uma broa com o Azeite dos Santos.
Sou emigrante na Suiça, e quando venho das férias, algo que não pode faltar na mala é uma caixa de Azeite dos Santos. Mesmo estando longe conseguimos sentir o nosso País. E os miúdos adoram o azeite.
