The Conde de Benalúa Special extra virgin olive oil 2025-2026 is an exceptional quality product made from early harvest olives. It has an intense green color and an aromatic bouquet that evokes the freshness of olive and leaf, complemented by nuances of green tomato, artichoke, and asparagus. On the palate, there is a balance of bitterness and spiciness, with the latter being persistent and a grassy, stemmy finish that enriches the tasting experience. This AOVE stands out not only for its complexity but also for its versatility in cooking; it is perfect for enhancing the flavor of salads, grilled vegetables, toasts, and carpaccios. Additionally, its use in both cold and hot dishes makes it an essential addition to the pantry. This oil is a blend of different varieties, ensuring a unique flavor profile representative of its origin. To maximize freshness and flavor, it is recommended to store it in a cool, dry place, protected from light.
