About the oil mill

Aceites Cazorla is the result of the effort and
commitment of more than 2,000 farmers from towns such as Cazorla, La Iruela, Burunchel, Quesada, Chilluevar, Santo Tomé, and Peal de Becerro. United by tradition and love for the olive tree, their common goal is to produce an Extra Virgin Olive Oil of unsurpassable quality, the fruit of generations of experience and a meticulous production process.

Located on the doorstep of the Natural Park of the
Sierras de Cazorla, Segura, and Las Villas, their oils reflect the character of this privileged environment: wild aromas, fresh flavor, and velvety texture. The olive harvest takes place between November and December, when the fruit reaches its optimal ripeness. Although tradition remains alive with the use of shawls and bundles, nowadays manual vibrators are used that respect both the tree and the environment.

Once harvested, the olives are carefully sorted and transported to the mill, where a production process begins that prioritizes hygiene, quality, and respect for the product. This is how one of the most valued EVOOs on the national scene is born, a symbol of mountain know-how.

Aove features Picual

Lavariedad Picual es la más representativa del aceite de oliva virgen extra en España, abarcando más del 50 % del olivar en nuestro país, especialmente en la provincia de Jaén, aunque también está muy presente en otras zonas de Andalucía como Córdoba o Granada. Su nombre se debe a la forma de su fruto, que termina en una pequeña punta o “pico”.

Sucolor puede variar del verde brillante al dorado, dependiendo del grado de maduración de la aceituna y del momento de recolección. Es un aceite con una gran estabilidad oxidativa, lo que significa que se conserva muy bien sin perder propiedades, aromas ni sabor con el paso del tiempo. Su estructura compleja y su perfil potente lo hacen inconfundible.

Todo un símbolo de identidad en la cultura del AOVE, elaceite de oliva virgen extra Picual destaca por su intensidad y riqueza sensorial, así como por su alta concentración de polifenoles y un porcentaje de ácido oleico superior al 75%, lo que se traduce en propiedades beneficiosas para el sistema cardiovascular, ayudando a reducir el colesterol LDL (colesterol malo) y a aumentar el HDL (colesterol bueno).

Pairing

Picual EVOO has a medium to intense fruitiness, with notes of olive leaf, tomato, fig tree, green almond, and freshly cut grass. On the palate, it offers a powerful flavor, with a marked bitterness and a persistent final spiciness,
although balanced.

Picual extra virgin olive oil is perfect for those seeking intense, structured, and characterful flavors. When raw, its best version is shown on sourdough toast with grated tomato or avocado, where it displays all its power. It is also ideal for dressing salads with bitter or spicy ingredients, such as arugula, escarole, red onion, mustard, or cured cheeses.

In hot dishes, it withstands high temperatures very well, making it excellent for crispy frying, meat stews, sofritos, baked rice, stews, and sautéed vegetables. Additionally, it also works as a final touch
in cold creams like salmorejo or ajoblanco, enhancing their flavor.

FAQs

Is the color of the oil always the same?

The color of olive oil It can vary and is not always the same. It depends on several factors, such as the variety of the olive, the moment of collection and the elaboration process. Early harvest oils have an intense green color for their high chlorophyll content, especially after its elaboration. Over time, towards the end of the campaign, this tone can turn to more golden or yellowish nuances. This variation is natural and does not affect its flavor or quality.

How long does my oil endure?

Early oils are generally elaborated between October and November and stand out for their intensity and freshness. The ideal is to consume them in the first 9-12 months since its elaboration to enjoy all its qualities. Although they do not expire, they do lose aromas and properties over time. Our recommendation: Always bet on the current harvest oil and consume it as soon as possible to savor it at your best.

What does it mean that an oil is "early harvest"?

An early harvest oil is obtained from olives collected before its optimal maturation moment, usually between October and November. This process requires more effort, since green olives produce less oil and their collection is more complex, but the result is an extra virgin of superior quality, with intense, fresh and fruity flavors. In addition, these oils have a high content of antioxidants, such as polyphenols, which make it healthier and more aromatic.

How did I keep my oil?
