El Jabalcuz Cosecha Temprana is made from green picual olives harvested in October and pressed in less than 24 hours: maximum polyphenols and intense fruitiness, at €17/liter in PET and €25/liter in glass bottles, with cases available directly from the oil mill.
The Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil from the SCA Sierra de la Pandera represents the excellence and pride of our cooperative. Every year, as autumn is just beginning and the olives still retain their intense green color, our members prepare for the first harvest. At this point in the season, the fruit offers its highest concentration of aromas, polyphenols, and freshness, resulting in an exceptional oil.
Early harvesting means a lower yield, as the olives have not yet fully ripened and contain less oil. However, the result more than makes up for it: a green, fragrant, and balanced EVOO, with notes evoking freshly cut grass, tomato leaf, olive leaf, and green almond. Its aromatic complexity and persistence on the palate make it a premium product, valued by both professional tasters and lovers of quality oil.
The harvest is carried out with care, in the early days of October or November depending on the weather, and pressing takes place immediately in our modern facilities. Temperature control and cold extraction ensure that the oil retains all its sensory potential and health benefits.
Our Early Harvest EVOO is a gastronomic gem designed to be enjoyed raw: on freshly baked bread, in gourmet salads, carpaccios, or vegetable dishes. Each bottle concentrates the effort of our farmers and the commitment of Sierra de la Pandera to quality, innovation, and sustainability.
In addition, this oil stands out for its high content of antioxidant compounds, especially polyphenols, responsible for its intense flavor and health properties. It is an oil that not only shines on the plate, but also enhances well-being and the connection to the land.
Choosing an Early Harvest Oil means choosing authenticity, the passion for a job well done, and the purest expression of the olive groves of Jaén. It is a tribute to patience, knowledge, and respect for nature.
Each season reminds us that excellence is no coincidence: it is the result of taking care of every detail, from the field to the bottle.
