Picual with character
It is an intense Picual that shows the variety's personality plainly: green fruitiness, structure and a bitterness and pungency that give presence to every dish.
That intensity makes it ideal both raw, on bread or salads, and for cooking, thanks to the stability that characterises Jaén Picual.
A new generation
Behind Cañada del Avestruz is a generation that has committed to maintaining the quality of the family oil and bringing the culture of extra virgin to the world from Jaén, its epicentre. In Porcuna they carefully tend centuries-old olive trees that are part of the town's landscape and history.
The grove also takes part in a circular economy initiative: olive leaves go into other products, their remains become a substrate for growing mushrooms and, once used, that substrate returns to the trees as fertiliser, closing the loop.
In the kitchen
- Stews and spoon dishes.
- Home frying.
- Toast with tomato.
- Seasonal salads.
- Roast meat and vegetables.
With five litres in the pantry, it can be used for everything without a second thought.
5-litre jug
The jug is the most economical format per litre and the most convenient for families who cook a lot or for small hospitality businesses. An opaque table cruet can be filled from it, keeping the rest of the oil protected.
It is best kept somewhere cool and dark, away from the hob, and tightly closed.
