About the oil mill

The S. Coop. And. Stmo. Cristo de la Misericordia, responsible for the brand La Quinta Esencia, is based in Jódar (Jaén) since 1952. Founded by a small group of olive growers, its goal was to protect and enhance the agricultural production of the area, producing and marketing high-quality extra virgin olive oils.

Over the years, this cooperative has managed to grow and modernize without losing its essence. Currently, it has about 700 members committed to the care of the olive tree and the environment. The location, at the gates of the Sierra Mágina Natural Park and the Upper Guadalquivir, allows cultivating olives in an environment rich in
biodiversity and natural resources.

La Quinta Esencia combines traditional techniques with the most innovative to obtain a balanced, fresh, and healthy oil. Its values focus on sustainability,
respect for the environment, and the constant pursuit of excellence, making its EVOO stand out for its purity and flavor.

Aove features Picual

La variedad 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 dishes, stews, and sautéed vegetables. Additionally, it also works as a final touch
in cold creams
like salmorejo or ajoblanco, enhancing their flavor.
