About this variety
Extra virgin olive oil produced from the Cornezuelo de Jaén variety stands out for its richness in fruity aromas and flavors, accompanied by a subtle bitterness and spiciness that give it a unique complexity. Primarily cultivated in the Extremadura region, specifically in the Gata-Hurdes, Monterrubio, and Villuercas-Ibárrices-Jara areas, this variety is ideal for accompanying typical dishes from Extremaduran cuisine, such as game and charcuterie. Its intense and complex flavor makes it ideal for use in preparations that require an authentic and traditional touch, such as dressings, marinades, and vegetable soups.
