Two varieties from Los Badenes
Aires de Jaén is a family business from Jabalquinto with more than half a century in olive oil. Its Los Badenes estate stretches along the Guadalquivir and combines traditional groves with modern plantings of Picual, Arbequina, Frantoio and Empeltre.
The mill stands on the estate itself, so the olives reach it freshly picked and the family controls the whole path, from tree to bottling. Aires Arbequina Picual comes from that union of Picual and Arbequina.
Where Aires Arbequina Picual stands out
- Crispy fried fish, vegetables and potatoes.
- Sofrito bases for rice, stews and sauces.
- Mild sauces for pasta and meat.
- Everyday salads, used raw.
- Toast and bread, with a generous pour.
Six 2-litre containers with handle
Six 2 L containers add up to twelve litres. It is a pantry format that saves trips and packaging: one container in use, the others closed. Aires de Jaén sells this oil in packs, and that is how you get it here, complete.
The handle makes daily use easier. Store the containers at room temperature, not above 25 ºC and away from direct light, and refill a small cruet to keep by the stove.
