Features: Harvested early in mid-October, O-Med Picual has an aroma that is categorized as medium fruitiness with tomato plant, green almond and hints of aromatic herbs. The palate gives a persistent taste of artichoke and green walnut. This is balanced with a long peppery finish, providing outstanding complexity and layers of flavor to your dish. Use O-Med Picual to finish meat dishes, tomato salads, and tomato sauces or drizzle over full bodied cheeses. Add to cold soups like vichyssoise or gazpacho/salmorejo. This oil has a special love affair with Pulpo Gallego, octopus.
Packaging options: 500ml white bottle, 250ml and 1L tins
Owned and operated by the Garcia-Casas family in Acula, Andalusia, in southern Spain, O-Med have been harvesting their own olive trees for four generations and producing extra virgin olive oil for two. In 2005 they purchased a mill in order to produce the highest quality olive oil possible by controlling each step of the process from olive groves to mill to bottle. O-Med produces early harvest EVOO in order to preserve the best organoleptic properties in the oils. As farmers, sustainability is of foremost importance to O-Med where solar power and an incinerator which burns the olive pits produce 40% of the mill's energy needs. O-Med is a founding member of QvExtra, a seal which certifies quality level is higher than current legislative requirements.
