An early-harvest EVOO from the Aguilar Family Estate. This classic, high-quality Picual olive oil exhibits a medium-plus intensity with bright freshness. It features an intense and complex herbal profile, distinguished by strong herbaceous notes, along with hints of green banana, mint, nettle, olive leaf, and black pepper. An exceptional balance of bitterness, pungency, and fruitiness enhances the notable herbal and floral aromas. This oil is truly a gem.
Note: This Picual (called Family Reserve Picual, from the Aguilar Family Estate) has consistently won gold medals at the New York International Olive Oil Competition and the LA International Olive Oil Competition.
