LA Almazara ? the World’s First Signature Olive Oil Mill ? Opens in Ronda, Spain



Designed by Philippe Starck, internationally renowned for his visionary creativity, LA Almazara reflects a passion and respect for tradition, culture, and nature of Andalusia. The designer has created a unique and immersive place, housing a working oil press for the LA Organic brand, a museum, as well as a restaurant, which together celebrate the magic of Southern Spain?s gastronomic olive oil.

Last week The Luxury Editor visited one of our favourite destinations in the Mediterranean, the historic, picturesque town of Ronda, surrounded by the striking landscapes of the Serranía de Ronda, in the Southern Spanish province of Malaga.

We were privileged guests of a pre-inauguration tour of the new LA Almazara, designed by Philippe Starck, a working olive oil mill that is also an architectural work of art, and a centre honouring excellence in extra virgin olive oil (EVOO).

LA Organic

This structure is extraordinary. When I met Philippe Starck during the visit, he described it as ?exaggerated, monumental, abnormal, beyond human scale.? It certainly makes an impact and is set to further consolidate Ronda as a destination for culture and gastronomy.

Here’s a glance of the interior.
