★★★★★ Maria Jose Piquer

“Nuevamente todo un acierto el aceite que me habéis aconsejado, un aceite con sabor, olor y paladar exquisitos”

About this oil

Jabalcuz Cosecha Temprana is an extra virgin olive oil of the variety Picual, produced in Jaen, crafted by Jabalcuz (SCA Sierra de la Pandera).

Sensory profile

Sensory star crafted by Mercedes Uceda. With every order from Molino & Cata you receive a printed copy of this tasting sheet.

Tasting notes

This Picual presents intense aromas of green leaf, lettuce stalk, black pepper and banana peel. On the palate it shows its character from the very first moment, with bitterness and pungency clearly present yet beautifully balanced. The aftertaste is green nuts and green wood.

Pairing

This EVOO is ideal for salads, toasts with Iberico ham and smoked foods. For finishing vegetable soups, giving them a distinctive touch. Your breakfasts will never be the same if you add this Picual to your toast -- use it generously!

Mercedes' expert opinion

If the Gran Seleccion is the jewel of Jabalcuz, the Cosecha Temprana is the workhorse. Same origin, same commitment to quality, but designed for everyday use. It is the oil I recommend to anyone who wants quality at a price that allows them to use it without guilt. And the fact that a cooperative of over a thousand members achieves this deserves recognition.

Jabalcuz is a cooperative from Los Villares, Jaen, born in 2004 from the merger of San Juan Bautista and Nuestra Senora del Rosario, two historic village cooperatives. If the Gran Seleccion is the jewel of the cooperative, the Cosecha Temprana is the workhorse: same origin, same commitment to quality, but designed for everyday use. Early harvest means picking the olives while they are still green, between October and November. At that point the olive has less oil -- yield drops -- but more polyphenols and more complexity. More kilograms of olives are needed to produce a single litre of oil. The cooperative sits at the foot of the Sierra de la Pandera, at an altitude that makes a difference in every harvest. Behind this oil is the same cooperative that has won three consecutive Jaen Seleccion awards and a Mario Solinas from the International Olive Council. The awards go to the Gran Seleccion, but the Cosecha Temprana comes from the same village, the same trees and the same technical team. The track record backs every bottle.

Why it's in Molino & Cata

Cosecha Temprana is a serious Picual, with the cooperative's track record behind it, but at a level that lets you use it daily without guilt. It is the workhorse that every pantry deserves.

This information is mandatory under EU Regulation 1169/2011 on food information to consumers.

Extra virgin olive oil is a fresh product. Its quality depends on proper storage and consuming it within its optimal date. If an online shop does not tell you which lot it will ship or when it expires, you have no way of knowing if what you receive is from this harvest or two years ago.

Be wary of shops that do not publish this information. We show it because we believe you have the right to know exactly what you are buying.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference from the Gran Seleccion?

Same origin, same commitment to quality, but a slightly less complex profile. The Gran Seleccion uses the most rounded and complex batches; the Cosecha Temprana is a high-quality Picual for more everyday use.

Has it won any awards?

It shares the Jabalcuz brand's track record, but this particular product is not entered into competitions.
