What does it smell and taste like?
High intensity on the nose, with aromas of freshly cut grass and kiwi, fig stalk in lesser intensity. It is persistent and harmonious. In the mouth it has a fresh sensation with great character and personality. Perfect balance between its spiciness and bitterness. Sensation of green banana peel, walnut and tomato. It has almost no bitterness and the spiciness is slightly more pronounced. It leaves a very persistent, long-lasting but pleasant vegetable sensation on the palate. The blanqueta variety is typical of Alicante. Its name refers to the colour of the olives at veraison. It is an oil high in polyphenols and vitamin E.
Who is behind this bottle?
In Alicante, we have Almazara l’Alquría, Juan and his family arrived in the late 60s in Muro de Alcoy. It all began when, as a member of a cooperative, Juan decided to start his own way, to produce products of the highest quality and under the organic certificate. His olive trees are located at the tail end of the Beniarrés reservoir, some 350 metres above sea level, in the Comtat region, in the heart of the Sierra de Mariola Natural Park in Alicante.
How or with what do I cook it?
This Valencian variety is ideal for preparing the typical coca de levante, the well-known ‘Coca de Llanda’, and accompanying it with meringue milk ice cream and a drizzle of our aromatic Vieru olive oil with cinnamon. Don’t forget that you can access this recipe if you follow us on social media.
