GREEN EMERALD
On the last six nights of the harvest, the olives destined for the Gems Line are picked and pressed. Green Emerald belongs to the Gems Line and is made from 100% Picual olives. It comes in a bottle whose shape and dimensions are identical to an emerald. This Picual-variety oil has an aroma of fresh grass and tomato plant that evokes the vast olive groves of the Guadalquivir River basin.
Want to know more?
Green Emerald is made from Picual-variety olives, giving rise to our signature Picual Jaén oil, the origin of our entire harvest. This edition comes in a 500 ml bottle shaped like an emerald. The characteristic Picual green color of our oil is the result of a production process where we look after every last detail to guarantee the oil's optimal properties.
Green Emerald stands out for its fruity flavor of fresh grass, tomato plant, green almond, artichoke, and fig leaf. Together, these notes form the distinguished, exquisite flavor that defines it — sweet, moderately bitter, and slightly spicy on the palate, all in a very balanced way. The meticulousness of our technique allows us to grow the finest Picual Jaén olive oil.
Buying Picual extra virgin olive oil in an "emerald-cut" bottle transports you to the vast olive groves of the upper Guadalquivir basin. This journey is the result of a careful production process that combines tradition with innovation, so you can enjoy the finest Picual oil.
Caring for our groves is our main goal in achieving the exquisiteness of Verde Esmeralda Premium extra virgin olive oil. The system we use to bring out its best flavor is based on meticulous care of the land, free of thermal fluctuations, with the optimal temperature maintained at all times. Our selection process for the finest olive trees lets us work with the highest-quality fruit, whose fruit-setting takes place right on the tree. The olives are hand-harvested with great care until we extract their finest elixir. Green Emerald gives you the opportunity to buy exceptional-quality Picual Jaén oil.
Our goal is to form a true partnership with our land — nurturing and caring for it so we can produce an oil of the highest quality and an unforgettable flavor.
