About the oil mill

Property of Galgón 99, S.L., the Oro Bailén olive mill is located in a privileged enclave of the province of Jaén, in Villanueva de la Reina, at the foot of Sierra Morena and between the municipalities of Bailén and Andújar, at 400 meters altitude. Known as the gateway to Andalusia, this location hosts the Los Juncales and La Casa del Agua estates, where the olive trees follow a traditional planting framework (10x10
meters with three plants per tree), which favors a balanced and high-quality production.

The oil production process begins within less than two hours from harvesting, guaranteeing the maximum freshness of the fruit. Crushing and beating are done cold, not exceeding 21 ºC, which allows obtaining an extra virgin olive oil of very high quality.

Furthermore, the olive mill is committed to integrated production, fully respectful of the environment: it reuses pruning residues as organic fertilizer, maintains the ground cover, and reduces the use of herbicides. An external technical team made up of biologists and agricultural engineers supervises each phase, ensuring a perfect balance between tradition, innovation, and sustainability.

EVOO Features Picual

The Picual variety is the most representative of extra virgin olive oil in Spain, covering more than 50% of the olive groves in our country, especially in the province of Jaén, although it is also very present in other areas of Andalusia such as Córdoba or Granada. Its name comes from the shape of its fruit, which ends in a small point or “beak”.

Its color can vary from bright green to golden, depending on the degree of ripeness of the olive and the time of harvest. It is an oil with great oxidative stability, which means it preserves very well without losing properties, aromas, or flavor over time. Its complex structure and powerful profile make it unmistakable.

A true symbol of identity in the EVOO culture, the extra virgin olive oil Picual stands out for its intensity and sensory richness, as well as for its high concentration of polyphenols and an oleic acid percentage above 75%, which translates into beneficial properties for the cardiovascular system, helping to reduce LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and increase HDL (good cholesterol).

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.

FAQs

Is the color of the oil always the same?

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

How long does my oil last?

Early oils are usually made between October and November and stand out for their intensity and freshness. Ideally, they should be consumed within the first 9-12 months from their production to enjoy all their qualities. Although they do not expire, they do lose aromas and properties over time. Our recommendation: always opt for oil from the current harvest and consume it as soon as possible to taste it at its best moment.

What does it mean for an oil to be "early harvest"?

An early harvest oil is obtained from olives collected before their optimal ripening time, generally between October and November. This process requires more effort, as green olives produce less oil and their harvesting is more complex, but the result is a superior quality extra virgin, with intense, fresh, and fruity flavors. Additionally, these oils have a high content of antioxidants, such as polyphenols, which make it healthier and more aromatic.

How do I store my oil?

To keep your extra virgin olive oil in perfect condition, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct light. Ideally, keep it between 16 °C and 22 °C, and always well sealed to prevent oxidation. Avoid placing it near heat sources such as the stove or in the sun. If you have bought a large container, you can refill a smaller bottle for daily use and keep the rest well protected. This way, you will preserve all its flavor, aroma, and properties for longer.
