Who's Behind 18:1 and Our Nectar Program?

Passion: Our Most Flammable Fuel !
Creating olive groves, watching them grow with the rhythm of the seasons, facing the whims of the sky, and hoping—every year—for that golden liquid born of our labor…
It’s more than a job. It’s a quest.
Each drop of olive oil reflects this journey—this patience, this deep connection with the land.
As Jean Giono once said, “Happiness is sorrow transformed”—because behind every harvest lie challenges, doubts, and above all, immense joy.
To live without passion is to miss the journey.
I chose to go all in. 100%.
I’m Alexis Muñoz, producer of 18:1 olive oils and proud "eco-founder" of the Nectar Program – Regenerative Olive Farming.
