Pajarera is a variety that 99% of olive oil consumers have never heard of. It grows in the Sierras Subbeticas, the Guadajoz Valley, and the Campina Sur of Cordoba. Its name comes from the fieldfares — birds that prefer these olives for their large size, their sweetness when ripe, and their high energy value. If the birds choose it, there must be a reason.
The Matilla Rubio-Chavarri family has managed the "Minguillao" estate in Priego de Cordoba for five generations. In 2018 they launched a pioneering project by planting Pajarera olive trees, and began marketing the single-variety under the eoloe brand in 2021. It is a personal and bold bet: working with a little-known variety when everyone else plays it safe with Picual or Arbequina.
Pajarera has a very limited cultivated area, concentrated in the province of Cordoba. The industry has focused on mass-market varieties and ignored it for decades. Producers like eoloe are recovering it for the gourmet market. An oil for EVOO explorers — if you already know Picual, Arbequina, and Hojiblanca, Pajarera is your next discovery.
La Pajarera es una variedad que el 99 % de los consumidores de aceite no ha oído mencionar jamás. Los zorzales la prefieren por su dulzor al madurar, y eso ya nos dice algo. Este monovarietal de la familia Matilla tiene un intenso verde hoja con hinojo y frutos rojos que es inconfundible — en boca la transición de suave a amargo y luego al picante tipo guindilla es de las que dejan huella. Es el aceite que me permite hablar de variedades olvidadas que merecen ser rescatadas.
