Tasting Cañada del Avestruz Picual
In the glass it shows itself as a Picual with character: green, lively and with the variety's structure. Its bitterness and pungency give relief to food and lengthen the finish.
It is an oil to enjoy above all raw, where its intensity comes through unfiltered, although its stability also makes it suitable for the frying pan.
Porcuna and its olive trees
Porcuna is a town in the Jaén countryside surrounded by olive groves, with centuries of farming history. There the Cañada del Avestruz family carefully tends its centuries-old trees, and the new generation has taken on the challenge of maintaining quality and bringing the culture of extra virgin to more people.
Its grove is also part of a circular economy cycle in which olive leaves are reused and finally return to the soil as fertiliser.
How to enjoy Cañada del Avestruz Picual
- Freshly toasted country bread.
- Salmorejo and gazpacho.
- Tomato and tuna belly salad.
- Grilled meat, at the end.
A few drops are enough to give a simple dish more flavour.
