100% Natural Juice
Our Picual Traditional is 100% natural juice pressed from healthy, ripe Picual olives.
The fruit you see in the picture is a ripe Picual olive. If you were to squeeze it, you would see drops of olive oil mixed with water. With careful mechanical cold extraction methods only (never chemicals), we separate the oil from the water, leaving authentic extra virgin olive oil.
To give you an idea of nature’s balance:
- A 400-year-old olive tree produces on average 50 kg of olives each harvest and once per year. By November–December, the fruit has ripened and turned from bright green to black.
- From every 5 kg of olives, we obtain 1 liter of olive oil. So this bottle of 5L contains the juice of 25 kg of black olives (half production of an olive tree).
Product Details.
More and more people are recognizing the value of this container. It’s the most traditional container we use back home, as this olive juice is a staple for everything we do. Rest assured, the quality is identical to our 500ml bottle and 2.5L golden tin.
Flavor Profile: Picual has a robust and bold flavor profile. Complex combination of fruity, bitter, and peppery notes, contributing to a rich and intense taste experience. If we compare early harvest with this one (harvest time-traditional), this one is milder in flavour, tastes more like a picual fruit and less like a leaf.
High Polyphenol Content: Picual olives contain higher levels of polyphenols, which are natural antioxidants. These compounds combat free radicals keeping our cells younger and also provide a longer shelf life by helping to prevent oxidation. We are lucky that within the 1200 types of olives in the world, picual is one varieties of olives with the highest amount in polyphenols. This also allow us to cook with it.
Harvest Time - Date DEC 2024: Harvest time means the olives are picked when they are fully ripened. This means that 1 case with 3x5L bottles represents the production of about one and a half centenary olive trees. For full transparency, the harvest date is always indicated on the back label.
Peppery Finish that your throat will handle: Picual olive oil is known for its peppery finish. This peppery sensation at the back of the throat is a sign of the oil's high-quality and fresh attributes. Do not worry, Vezorla's picual is a medium intensity so your throat normally won't suffer for a strong caught.
Traditional agriculture practices: Our trees are happily planted 10 metres apart. We cold extract the juice within 8 hours of the olives being harvested. Note: Cold Press is only a trend, that is an old procedure to extract the juice, nowadays is only use for personal consumption.
DOP Quality Stamp with traceability number located at the back of the label.
