Rincón de la Subbética Organic 500 ml is an organic extra virgin olive oil made exclusively from Hojiblanca olives by Almazaras de la Subbética, a cooperative located in Carcabuey, in the heart of the Sierras Subbéticas Natural Park, Córdoba. Considered one of the oil mill's most iconic oils, it represents a commitment to quality, olive-growing tradition, and respect for the natural environment.
Its production begins in the mountain olive groves of the Cordovan Subbética, where the terrain, altitude, and Mediterranean climate influence the development of the olives. The Hojiblanca variety, especially adapted to this area of Andalusia, is prized for producing oils of great sensory complexity. Early harvesting and cold extraction allow for the preservation of the fresh aromas and natural characteristics of the fruit.
On the nose, it presents an intense and complex green fruitiness, with hints of freshly cut grass, olive leaf, tomato plant, and artichoke, accompanied by notes of green almond and aromatic herbs. On the palate, it offers a fresh and elegant entry, followed by a balanced bitterness and a progressive spiciness that provides structure. Its finish is persistent, with pleasant vegetal sensations and a remarkable richness of nuances.
Thanks to its aromatic intensity, it is especially recommended to be enjoyed raw on artisan bread, tomato, salads, and vegetables. It also pairs very well with fish, grilled meats, aged cheeses, legumes, and traditional Andalusian dishes. It is especially interesting for finishing gazpachos, salmorejos, vegetable creams, and recipes where you want the olive oil to play a starring role.
