What is the Oliana variety?

The Oliana olive comes from a cross between the Arbequina and Arbosana varieties. It is its own variety, distinct from its parent varieties, and is used to produce oils with a recognizable identity.

An Oliana monovarietal oil is made exclusively from this olive. It is not a blend of Arbequina and Arbosana oils: the cross produces a different olive tree, and it is its fruit that is taken to the oil mill.

As with other varieties, the land, the conditions of each season, and the time of harvest influence the result. That is why knowing different producers allows you to appreciate different expressions of Oliana.

What does Oliana olive oil taste like?

Oliana EVOO usually offers a fruity profile, with a sweet start and generally mild bitterness. The spiciness may be slightly more pronounced, although its intensity varies depending on how the oil is made.

Its aromas may include notes of apple, banana, almond, and other vegetal or fruity nuances. Some options are particularly mild, while others show greater intensity and persistence.

The sweet sensation describes its flavor profile; it does not mean that it contains sugar. To choose, consult the tasting notes of each product and pay attention to the balance between fruitiness, bitterness, and spiciness.

How to enjoy Oliana oil in the kitchen

Its profile allows it to accompany delicate ingredients and explore both savory and sweet uses. You can start with these combinations:

• Toast and breakfast: on bread, either on its own or with tomato or fresh cheese.
• Salads: to prepare dressings in which the oil complements the other ingredients.
• White fish and vegetables: as a finishing touch for preparations steamed, baked, or grilled.
• Sauces and emulsions: a mild oil can work well in mayonnaise and other accompaniments.
• Baking: for sponge cake, muffin, or citrus dessert recipes that call for olive oil.

Before using it in a recipe, try a small amount raw. This will allow you to assess its intensity and decide how much to add to achieve the result you want.
