Tasting Mergaoliva CÉNIT Picual

With five litres, CÉNIT Picual becomes the kitchen’s reference oil. Its medium fruitiness, with leaf, tomato and banana, and its fresh aftertaste work raw, and its stability makes it ideal for stews, roasts and frying.

It is a generous oil that never tires and adapts to everyday cooking, from breakfast to dinner.

Buying a large jug means using organic oil without measuring every drop, with the reassurance of always having the same recognisable flavour in every dish.

Veraison Picual from Lahiguera

CÉNIT Picual comes from olives picked at veraison, when their skin begins to turn purple. Oleohiguera cold extracts them at its mill in Lahiguera, in the Jaén countryside, from certified organic groves.

It is the midpoint of the season: the olive has gained a little sweetness and roundness yet keeps the green freshness typical of Picual.

In a village that has lived from olive growing for generations, this mill has chosen to turn each moment of the harvest into a different oil, and CÉNIT is the most balanced of them all.

Organic farming, without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, keeps the soil alive and leaves a ground cover between the trees that shelters insects and birds. That care for the land shows later in a clean, fresh oil, true to the olive it comes from, harvest after harvest.

How to enjoy Mergaoliva CÉNIT Picual

Stews and pottages.
Oven roasts.
Frying.
Salads and toast.

A five-litre jug holds oil for a hearty stew, fried aubergines, a roast chicken and a whole week of salads. Picual withstands high temperatures very well and keeps its flavour after cooking.

Mergaoliva CÉNIT Picual: the 5-litre PET jug

The five-litre jug is the most economical and practical format for families who cook a lot. Its handle helps pouring, though the easiest way is to refill an everyday cruet from it.

It keeps best in a cool, dark place, tightly closed, as plastic does not protect from light.
