What is the Lucio olive variety like?
The Lucio olive is an organic variety native to Granada, known for its unique balance between flavor and aroma. Its fruits are medium-sized, slightly elongated in shape, and have an intense green color that evolves into golden tones as they ripen.
This variety is characterized by its excellent quality for producing extra virgin olive oil, offering a fruity sensory profile with fresh, herbaceous notes, where nuances of green apple and a delicate almond touch predominate. In addition, its fleshy, juicy texture contributes to optimal oil extraction, resulting in an intense and harmonious oil.
Its oil is highly prized for its great stability (resistance to oxidation), which gives it excellent resistance to high cooking temperatures. These are oils with great personality, full body, and green olive fruitiness, with olive leaf, a light pungency, and bitterness appreciated on the palate.
The Lucio tree is hardy and adapts well to organic farming, making it possible to obtain oils of great purity and authenticity, highly valued by chefs and gastronomy experts.
