Oro del Desierto Picual 3 L is an organic extra virgin olive oil made exclusively from the Picual olive variety. It comes from the Oro del Desierto olive groves in Tabernas, Almería, where the producer family carries out its activity in an environment with an arid climate, low rainfall, and abundant hours of sunshine.
Picual is a variety especially prized for the intensity, structure, and stability of its oils. In this monovarietal, the work in organic cultivation and the care of the olive throughout the production process seek to preserve the freshness of the fruit and obtain an EVOO with a clear varietal expression full of character.
Its aromatic profile is clearly dominated by green sensations. Notes of tomato vine and fresh grass stand out, accompanied by hints of olive leaf, green almond, and other vegetal nuances. On the palate, it has body and an intensity that grows during tasting: the bitterness provides structure and the pungency appears progressively, giving way to a fresh and lingering finish.
Due to its personality, Oro del Desierto Picual is especially interesting for raw use when you want the oil to have a presence in the dish. It is ideal for toast with tomato, salads, vegetables, soups, and legumes, as well as for accompanying meats, stews, and intensely flavored cheeses. Its 3-liter format offers a practical option for those who regularly consume organic EVOO without giving up a high-quality monovarietal.
