🫒 Jaén Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Jaén is the world capital of olive oil and Martos the birthplace of the picual variety: a full-bodied oil with fruity notes of green grass and a characteristic bitterness and pepperiness revealing its wealth of antioxidants. It is enjoyed raw on toast with tomato, the quintessential Andalusian breakfast.
