Capirete Olive Oil

From the same company that makes our favorite 50 year sherry vinegar. 

It's an excellent mono-varietal extra virgin olive oil made exclusively from Picual olives, grown around Jerez in the Andalusia region of Spain. Picual olive oils have the best of both worlds. They start out smooth, sweet and buttery, then finish with a peppery kick with makes it a perfect oil for salads and bitter greens from your neighborhood farmer's market.

When you get up close and personal with this oil you notice its green banana nose. Think of the aroma you get from a under-ripe banana and you've got it. The flavor is milder than other oils on our shelves, making it a great oil for beginners in the kitchen. Its bitter, peppery flavor in the finish will please all oil afficionados, making it a great gift for foodies.

Smooth & assertive flavors
2023 Harvest. This oil has the classic green banana nose and is mild at the start. The flavor grows into a nice grassy bitterness with a light prickle of pepper on the finish, but it's not overpowering at all.
