PICUALIA OLIVE OIL
OUR EXTRA-VIRGIN OLIVE OILS
To understand why our products come in different-sized bottles and tins, you have to understand how we gather our olives. ASo, let’s look at how we break down the first three months’ harvest. October, November and December. These are the months when olives begin to ripen and take on their colour. In October the olives are green, perfect, bursting with the juices we use to make our Premium range. November’s olives turn a purplish shade, and their juices gain those early notes of maturity we need for our Gourmet range. Finally, in December, the olives turn black, showing us that they are fully ripe and giving us what we need for our extra-virgin olive oils in the Family range, a milder, fruity oil of excellent quality.
