Picual is the most widely cultivated olive variety in Spain and olive oil produced from Picual olives has a fruity flavor with hints of green leaf, banana and mint and a slight peppery finish.

The surprising peppery bite from this oil comes through delightfully when used raw, e.g. a drizzle over crisp greens, or use it to thin pesto for a delicious dipping sauce for bread.

This Picual oil is also an excellent cooking oil.
