Deortegas Picual is an organic extra virgin olive oil made exclusively from Picual variety olives by Deortegas, a producer located in Yecla, Murcia. Its olive groves are cultivated following the principles of organic farming, with a philosophy geared toward caring for the environment and obtaining oils that clearly express the characteristics of each variety.
Production is carried out with special attention to the quality of the fruit and the time elapsed between harvesting and extraction. This care preserves the freshness and aromatic richness of the olive, resulting in a single-variety oil that displays the intense, structured character typical of the Picual.
On the nose, green sensations predominate, with hints of tomato vine, freshly cut grass, and olive leaf, accompanied by nuances of green almond and other vegetal aromas. On the palate, it has a full-bodied entry and an evolution marked by a pleasant bitterness and increasing pungency. Both sensations appear harmoniously and extend its fresh character on the palate.
Deortegas Picual is particularly interesting when consumed raw and in dishes where an oil with presence is desired. It is ideal for toast with tomato, salads, vegetables, soups, and legumes, and also pairs very well with meats, cheeses, and other dishes with intense flavors.
