This oil, in full
Everything behind the numbers — the varietal, the estate, the milling, and how to taste it.
Same Garcia family, same mill in Acula, same obsession with detail. Juan de Dios bought the mill in 2004, and his children Paula and Juande -- both pharmacists -- left their careers to devote themselves to olive oil. They come from Cambil, Jaen. The difference from the Picual is the variety: where the Picual is intense and green, O-MED's Arbequina is complex and elegant without losing personality.
Same October harvest, same cold extraction within hours. The entire harvest lasts 3 to 4 days at most. From the moment the olive leaves the tree to the moment the oil is in a stainless-steel tank, hours pass -- not days. It is the same obsessive protocol they apply to the Picual, adapted to a variety that demands a different kind of precision.
The German magazine Der Feinschmecker ranked it number 2 in the world, and it holds gold medals from Olive Japan and the Zurich International Prize. This is not a generic supermarket Arbequina: it is an Arbequina bearing the signature of a mill that has spent two decades refining every detail of the process. Today it is exported to over 30 countries alongside the Picual.
La arbequina de O-MED tiene mucha elegancia. Hay capas aromáticas que van apareciendo con paciencia — la hierba recién cortada primero, la manzana verde después y por último, la papilla de frutas con canela que es tan característica de esta variedad.
