Tasting Melgarejo Premium Variety
The Picual is intense, with tomato leaf, green apple, banana peel and grass, and medium bitterness. The Hojiblanca recalls acorn, green almond and apple, with a sweet palate. The Frantoio combines sweetness, light bitterness and pepperiness, with hints of bitter almond and walnut.
The Arbequina is young and fruity, with apple and banana, and the Composición unites all four in a complex, elegant balance.
The Melgarejo mill
In Pegalajar, in the heart of Sierra Mágina, the Melgarejo family makes its oils from the olives of its estates in Jaén and Málaga. The company was founded in 1995, but the craft goes back much further: more than two centuries of generations devoted to the olive grove.
Its Premium range brings together five oils from the best fruit of each year, and the house has received recognition such as second prize from the International Olive Council for intense green fruitiness in 2012, along with medals at international competitions in Los Angeles and Israel.

- Picual: toast and gazpacho.
