Tasting Notes From The Curator
The Oro del Desierto Picual Extra Virgin Olive Oil is made with 100% Picual olives from early harvests, and cold extracted in two phases. The olives are grown between five and 15 years, and are taken from a single estate.
A filtered olive oil, it exudes a strong green color. It is persistent on the nose, with a medium intensity, and aromas of fresh grass, with notes of fig plant and olive leaf. It has great, sharp character on the palate, with a noticeable bitterness that is not overwhelming. It has an aftertaste that gives grassy, leafy notes.
Preparation And Pairings
You can sprinkle the Oro del Desierto Picual Extra Virgin Olive Oil on top of your salad or use it as part of a salad dressing. If poured over pasta or vegetables, it will give them a flavor boost. A popular appetizer idea is to drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil and a few dashes of balsamic vinegar into a small dish. This is a simple but tasty bread dip. To prepare a great mashed potato, add boiled potatoes, roasted garlic, EVOO, and salt and pepper.
