What does it smell like? What does it taste like?
An intensely fruity green oil that seduces from the very first moment. On the palate, it reveals a harmonious balance of bitterness and spiciness, with a complexity that captivates with its balance. Its rich palette of aromas transports us to a stroll among olive trees, with fresh notes of freshly cut grass, fig tree, mint, and tomato plant, enveloped in delicate nuances of almond and green walnut. An oil with soul, powerful and full of nuances that awaken the senses.
Who is behind this bottle?
Finca Varona la Vella, with more than four generations of history, stands on the hillside of La Bastida, in Sant Mateu, surrounded by centuries-old and millennial olive trees. Of its 18 hectares, 12 are dedicated to olive groves, where native varieties such as Farga and Morrut coexist alongside Empeltre and Picual. After the great frost of 1956, the estate managed to reinvent itself without losing its Mediterranean soul. Today, its 57 thousand-year-old olive trees remain living witnesses to a tradition that flourishes with each harvest.
What can I combine it with, or how can I cook it?
We recommend a warm burrata salad with roasted tomatoes, almonds, and fresh mint. The balanced bitterness and spiciness of Picual cleanses the palate and cuts through the creaminess of the burrata, enhancing its flavor without masking it. This interplay of textures and temperatures creates a well-rounded experience. Follow us on social media for recipe details.
