Also, depending on what you are going to eat, you should use a different variety. Each variety is characterized by very characteristic notes and nuances, which make each one combine better with some foods or others.

First of all we have the Picual variety:

It is the most common and most widespread variety in Spain. The Picual variety has very defined characteristics compared to other varieties. It stands out for its bitterness and its herbaceous aromas, such as herbs, fig trees, and tomato plants, as long as it comes from early harvests. When Picual oil is young, its spiciness is accentuated, always in a balanced way. It is considered a powerful and full-bodied oil, with which with a small portion on your plate you can already taste its distinguished flavor.
