About this oil

This oil, in full

Everything behind the numbers — the varietal, the estate, the milling, and how to taste it.

Finca Badenes is a family project born from 200 hectares of olive groves in the Guadalquivir valley, in Jabalquinto, Jaen. Grandfather Matias bought the estate in 1965 and named it after the undulations of the terrain. Today the family cultivates four varieties -- Picual, Frantoio, Arbequina and Empeltre -- across three different systems: traditional, intensive and super-intensive.

The almazara (olive oil mill) and bottling facility are in the heart of the estate. From tree to bottle without leaving home. This Picual is early harvest, with the harvesting moment carefully selected.

Finca Badenes Picual has won many accolades over the years, but in this 25/26 harvest it is achieving its finest results yet. A Picual from Jaen with a proven track record, crafted by a family with three generations on the same land.

Finca Badenes es un proyecto familiar donde se demuestra que el control desde el campo a la botella es un acierto. Este picual del valle del Guadalquivir tiene el carácter de la variedad bien expresado. Es un proyecto que ha ido mejorando en calidad año tras año, hasta alcanzar en esta cosecha una complejidad maravillosa.

Who produces Finca Badenes?
Aires de Jaen S.L., a family company managing the Los Badenes estate in Jabalquinto, Jaen. 200 hectares of olive groves with four varieties -- Picual, Frantoio, Arbequina and Empeltre -- and their own mill on the estate. The entire process, from tree to bottle, takes place on the same property.
What awards does the Finca Badenes Picual have?
It has entered the Top 100 of the world's best EVOOs. Gold medal at Brazil iOOC 2020 and recognitions at Expoliva, the benchmark international competition held in Jaen.
Is it early harvest?
Yes. The olives are picked between October and November, when they are still green and have the highest concentration of polyphenols. Milled on the same day as harvest.
What does the Finca Badenes Picual taste like?
Intense green fruitiness. Tomato plant and fig tree dominate on the nose. On the palate it has structure, with defined bitterness and progressive pungency. A Picual with character -- not mild, but not aggressive either.
Which dishes does it go best with?
Legumes, red meats, grilled vegetables, toast with tomato, hearty salads. Any dish that needs an oil that makes itself known. For delicate fish or baking, better choose the Coupage.
How should I store it?
In a dark, cool place, between 16 and 22C, away from heat sources. Once opened, consume within 4-6 weeks to enjoy it at its best.
