Picudo Club del Gourmet Extra Virgin Olive Oil – 500g

Picudo olives from Córdoba produce a robust, peppery extra virgin olive oil that sits at the heart of Spanish Mediterranean cooking. This 500-gram bottle captures the harvest's grassy, herbaceous notes — the kind of oil that makes a simple plate of pan con tomate into something worth remembering. Club del Gourmet has curated this selection for those who know the difference between a cooking oil and a finishing oil.

About this product

Picudo olives grow wild and thin-skinned across Andalusia, demanding patient harvesting and careful pressing. The result is an oil with character: slightly peppery on the finish, bright with fresh herb aromatics, and golden-green in the glass. This is an oil meant to be tasted, not hidden in a pan.

How to enjoy

• Drizzle over warm soups, grilled fish, or roasted vegetables
• Use as a finishing oil for salads, white beans, or grilled bread
• Pair with aged manchego or jamón ibérico for a simple tapa
• Spoon over tomato-based dishes just before serving

⭐ Why we love this

Picudo olives are a hallmark of Córdoban tradition, and this oil captures what Spanish cooks prize: a peppery finish and grassy complexity that elevates rather than masks. This is the oil that transforms *pan con tomate* from sustenance into a moment worth savoring.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Drizzle over creamy white bean *potaje*, serve alongside aged Manchego and sliced jamón ibérico for a refined tapa, or finish a bowl of gazpacho on a warm Andalusian evening. Pair with a crisp Fino sherry or a mineral white from Montilla-Moriles to echo the oil's herbaceous character.
