Tasting Mergaoliva tasting set

ALBA, picked first, brings an intense green fruitiness with notes of fig tree, tomato plant and almond. CÉNIT, at the midpoint, offers a medium fruitiness of leaf, tomato and banana. ÉREBO, the ripest, is milder and rounder.

The names follow the path of the sun: from dawn to zenith and into darkness. Tasting them in reverse order, from ÉREBO to ALBA, raises the intensity step by step without tiring the palate.

It is an experience that surprises even daily olive oil users: the same olive, picked a few weeks earlier or later, changes completely in colour, aroma and flavour.

Oleohiguera and the Picual of Lahiguera

Oleohiguera makes certified organic oils in Lahiguera (Jaén) under the Mergaoliva brand. In this box the star is Picual, the province’s queen variety, picked at three stages of ripeness.

Organic farming, without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, and mechanical extraction let each oil clearly express the moment its olives were picked.

How to enjoy Mergaoliva tasting set

ALBA: toast, salmorejo and meat.
CÉNIT: salads and vegetables.
ÉREBO: fish, baking and delicate dishes.

With all three oils on the table, a simple meal becomes a tasting: bread, some roast vegetables and a salad are enough to compare their profiles and find which suits each dish best.

Mergaoliva tasting set: the cardboard box

Mergaoliva tasting set, Cardboard box and 3 tins of 250 ml

The three illustrated 250 ml tins come in a cardboard box with a handle, practical for giving and easy to carry. The tins protect the oil from light and close well after each use.

It is an affordable, instructive gift, perfect for anyone who wants to learn to tell oils apart without buying large bottles. Once the tasting is over, each tin finds its own place in the kitchen, according to the dishes it suits best.
