Family estates in northern Jaén
Aceites Castellar, the company behind Nobleza del Sur, farms its own family estates and makes the oil at its mill on the Sabiote road. Each year it selects the fruit from its trees and picks it at the optimum moment; for Novo, that moment comes in October, when the olive is still green.
Century-old native Picual trees yield little, but very balanced and aromatic fruit. Hence the complexity of this start-of-season oil.
How to enjoy Nobleza del Sur Novo Picual
- Toast with tomato and a pinch of salt.
- Seasonal salads and raw vegetables.
- Pulses and creamy soups, drizzled raw when served.
- Grilled fish and seafood.
- Fresh cheeses with honey and walnuts.
Nobleza del Sur Novo Picual: for the home table
Without the bag, Novo is simply the oil of the season in its 500 ml bottle: practical for the kitchen and just the right size to enjoy while it keeps all its freshness. It keeps best closed, away from light and heat.
To get the most from it, taste it raw first, on bread or a simple salad, and then in the kitchen: a good oil shows as much when finishing a dish as when cooking over gentle heat. It is best enjoyed in the months after opening, while its aromas are intact.
