Mergaoliva ALBA is the table format of the early harvest from Oleohiguera: half a litre of organic Picual in a dark glass bottle, with the illustrated label of the picking. The oil you keep at hand to dress, to dip bread and to finish dishes.

This organic extra virgin olive oil surprises with its complexity: intense, yes, but never aggressive, the kind that pleases even those not used to green oils.

Green Picual from the Jaén countryside

Oleohiguera works in Lahiguera, in the heart of the Jaén countryside, with certified organic groves. For ALBA it picks the Picual in early October and cold-extracts it to keep it fresh.

The result is an oil that brings to the table the aroma of the grove at the start of the season, when the olive is still green and full of nuances.

Where Mergaoliva ALBA shines

Seasonal tomato salads.
Grilled vegetables.
Fresh cheeses, such as burrata.
Bread with salt and a thread of oil.
Salmorejo and cold soups.

A burrata with seasonal tomato, some grilled vegetables or a salmorejo find in Mergaoliva ALBA the oil that gives them depth. Raw, a thread at the end transforms very simple dishes.

The 500 ml bottle of Mergaoliva ALBA

Dark glass protects the oil from light, and half a litre is a size that is finished in a few weeks, while the oil is fresh. It is the size of the cruet on the table.

For gifts there is the same bottle with a gift box, and for daily cooking, the larger tins and bag-in-box.
