Oro Bailen Arbequina 500 ml

Oro Bailén extra virgin olive oil. 100% Arbequina. From Villanueva de la Reina, Jaén.

Villanueva de la Reina is located at an altitude of 400 metres, in the foothills of Sierra Morena, in Jaén. Since the 19th century, Oro Bailén has been producing its fruity and subtle olive oils.

The harvest is semi-manual, since the felling of the olive is done with specific machinery, consisting of vibrating the trunk, so that the fruit falls off sooner and in greater quantity, aided by manual shaking, followed by a large workforce for its collection in bales and subsequent loading onto the trailers that will quickly transport the olives to the oil mill.

The oil is left to settle naturally for 15 days, after which all the oil is filtered. It is stored in nitrogen-inert tanks, at a controlled temperature in the same winery between 18 - 20 degrees, ready for direct packaging, remaining unchanged throughout the year.

Tasting:

Exquisite Arbequina olive oil that combines the delicacy of the aromas of this variety with the strength and character of the southern lands.

A medium fruity aroma of fresh olives, with green aromas of herbs and green wheat interspersed among the fruity notes characteristic of the Arbequina; almonds, apples and ripe banana stand out. Its passage through the mouth is progressive, with a soft and delicate entrance, a very light bitterness afterwards and a more noticeable presence of spiciness. It is harmonious and has an almond-like aftertaste.
