Temprano Picual extra virgin olive oil by Tierra Callada is a rich and intense Spanish oil, made from Picual olives that have been harvested early in the season - “Temprano” actually translates to early in English - towards the end of October. It has complex flavors with decadent fruity notes, and a bright, fresh, and clean aftertaste, with the perfect amount of bitterness derived from the high level of polyphenols present in Picual olives.
Spain is responsible for half of the world’s olive oil production. Spanish EVOO, much like the olives themselves, is distinctly fruity and nutty in flavor, with less bitter undertones compared to regular olive oil. These differences are dictated by the temperate climate of the Spanish Mediterranean region where most of its olives are grown. You can find plenty of stunning Spanish olive oils in our varied selection!
