The profile of Benizar Picual
Nose
Freshly cut grass, with hints of tomato leaf and artichoke: the vegetal aroma that belongs to the Picual.
Palate
The medium-intense fruitiness fills the mouth, and bitterness and pepperiness appear in balance, neither covering the other.
Finish
A frank, clean close, with a pepperiness that lingers just enough and leaves the palate fresh.
From the groves of Hellín to the table
Hellín lies in the south of the province of Albacete, where La Mancha meets the lands of Murcia, a landscape of dry summers where rain-fed groves ripen the olive with little water and plenty of sun. This is where Acecasa works, the house that makes the Benizar range.
Benizar Picual is single-variety: Picual olives only, with no blending, so what you taste is the variety itself, with its herbaceous character and its structure.
What Benizar Picual is good for in the kitchen
- Toast with grated tomato and a generous pour of oil.
- Roast vegetables and spoon-dish pulses.
- Meats cooked over embers or on the griddle, dressed at the end.
- Salads with character, with tomato, onion or roasted peppers.
- Stews, roasts and home frying, thanks to the stability typical of Picual.
Benizar Picual, three 5 L jugs
Fifteen litres go a long way: months of home cooking. With three jugs, one can be in use and two kept in reserve, buying in one go the oil for a good part of the season.
To keep the oil in shape, closed jugs belong in a cool, dark place, away from light and heat. A simple trick is to fill a small cruet for everyday use and open the jug only when needed.
