El Lagar del Soto 5 L is an organic extra virgin olive oilproduced by Jacoliva in Pozuelo de Zarzón, Cáceres. This Extremaduran oil mill specializes in the production of EVOO from Manzanilla Cacereña, a variety deeply linked to the olive-growing landscape in the north of the province.
This reference is a 100% monovarietal Manzanilla Cacereña from organic farming. The olives come from groves in the north of Extremadura and are selected to obtain an oil that preserves the identity of this variety, characterized by offering aromatic profiles and an especially pleasant mouthfeel.
On the nose, it presents a medium fruitiness with notes of green apple, grass, green almond, and tomato plant, accompanied by other fruity nuances. On the palate, it is fluid and initially shows a sweet sensation, followed by light bitterness and pungency that increases progressively. The overall result is persistent and balanced.
Its profile allows it to be enjoyed directly on bread, toast, salads, and vegetables, but it can also be used in pasta, creams, purées, stews, frying, and baking. The 5-liter tinprovides an adequate amount for frequent use and keeps the EVOO protected from direct exposure to light.
