Cornicabra

About this variety

Cornicabra is the quintessential native variety of Castilla-La Mancha, dominant in Toledo and Ciudad Real. Its name alludes to the curved shape of the fruit, reminiscent of a goat's horn. It produces intense and very stable oils, with green fruity notes of freshly cut grass, fig tree and ripe tomato, and well-marked pungency and bitterness that signal its polyphenolic richness. Its high oxidative stability makes it ideal for cooking and food preservation.
