Oro de Cánava olive oil, 100% Picual selection. Coming from Sierra Mágina, Jaén. Awarded for two consecutive years, 2012 and 2013, with four prestigious awards for its organoleptic characteristics. The virtues that make it the recipient of these distinctions are: "Intense fruity aroma of green olives, great complexity between green and nutty aromas: mint, tomato plant, and banana peel with mature tones of almond and apple. Transparent, fragrant flavor, with perfect balance between light bitterness and progressive spiciness. Very structured and persistent." Production: The production begins in the olive groves, separating the olive from the tree from the ground, in order to choose the fruit from the beginning with the aim of obtaining one of the best Picual olive oils. The olive is crushed in the mill located in the Sierra Mágina region, northeast of the province of Jaén and declared a Natural Park. The olive groves in this area are trees with great foliage development. Since sometimes the altitude surpassed by the olive trees is 1,000 meters, they are mostly considered mountainous, being privileged by the particular microclimate. The harvesting season begins when the olives reach optimal ripeness. It is usually in November. Once the olives are picked from the tree (never mixed with those from the ground), they are transported to the mill, where they undergo strict cleaning. The olives are then washed in clean water from the Cánava spring. Next, the olives are crushed using a hammer mill system to break all the cells containing the oil inside the fruit, moving the obtained mass to the mixer where a compact and homogeneous mass is obtained. This mass, using a two-phase system, undergoes a special centrifugation to separate the oily must (oil) from the rest of the components. This must, at a maximum temperature of 22 degrees, is washed to eliminate any possible impurities. After this stage, the oil is transferred to the winery tanks. In the winery, it rests to reach the optimal degree of ripeness. The constant temperature of the winery contributes to making this oil one of the best natural products for consumption, coming from the heart of Sierra Mágina. Maximum acidity: 0.2
