Verde Divino Ecologico Picual EVOO, 500 ml
Verde Divino Ecologico Picual EVOO, 500 ml
We discovered Verde Divino olive oils (of Jaen, Andalucia), almost by accident at a food show in Madrid. It's hard to stand out at a huge exhibition, but they impressed us both with their oils and their enthusiasm. Their Early Harvest line is pressed from the first olives of the season, resulting in greener, fruitier flavors than later pressings, often with a touch of spiciness on the finish. We are excited to be able to introduce them to the U.S.
This Organic Picual took home a gold medal at the 2023 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. A strongly-flavored olive, Picual is prized both for its bold flavor and for its ability to maintain freshness and liveliness even after it's been open for awhile. Often blended into more delicate oils to give them more 'oomph', here it's allowed to shine on its own.
With bright green flavors leading into a medium-bitter, spicy finish, Picual can either hold its own with strongly flavored foods or add a layer of complexity to milder foods - whatever you need. This is the oil to drizzle on greens, on meats, in pastas, and on grilled fish. It also enhances the flavor of jamon, cheeses, and cold cuts. ORGANIC.
