Picual Monovarietal

This Spanish Picual EVOO, harvested in October 2024, showcases strong herbaceous notes with hints of green banana, mint, olive leaf, and black pepper, balanced by a perfect harmony of bitterness, pungency, and fruitiness, complemented by herbal and floral aromas. Crafted from premium Picual olives, it reflects traditional Spanish production methods and early harvesting for vibrant flavours. Ideal for drizzling over salads, grilled vegetables, or pairing with robust cheeses to enhance its bold profile.
