Tierra Callada was founded in 2014 with one foot in Jaen, Spain, and the other in New York in the United States of America. It was born with a clear mission statement: to promote culture of the EVOO by launching and selling a premium product. Supported by a new generation of Spanish olive oil masters milling, producers and farmers, Tierra Callada promotes a new vision, in which the quality and enhancement of the olive oil are the center of the universe.

When at Tierra Callada we say we are devoted to promote the EVOO culture it is not an empty phrase or wishful thinking. It is an attitude that includes not only the commitment of providing you a premium extra virgin olive oil, but also a determination to explain, advocate and promote the culture around the virgin olive oil. By promoting this treasure through tastings sessions, word of mouth, and our blog ... we aim to be honest EVOO ambassadors. Our mission is not just to sell the best extra virgin oil, it is also to enhance and communicate this culture.

Temprano has intense fresh fruitiness on the nose, with traces of tomato plant and green tomato, which are also present in the taste, along with artichoke, almond and green grass notes. Pungency and bitterness are in perfect balance with its fruitiness.

Tasting notes:

Envero delivers green character adding ripe fruit notes, resulting into a balanced and medium intensity EVOO. Aroma of tomato and banana with citric hints. In the mouth appears the apple and also tomato. Slightly bitter and spicy creating a great balance.

Envero works for a wide range of finishing and raw uses: harmonizing any kind of salad, sauce, cold soup, but also perfectly fit to cook with it due to its great stability and resistance to high temperatures because of the peak level of antioxidants.

Harvest:

November

Cultivar(s):

Arbequina

Tasting notes:

Arbequina has ripe and green character, resulting into a delicate medium intensity “sweet” oil. You will recognize ripe banana, honey and apple when you smell it. In the mouth you can find a hint of green grass, a really slightly spicy, even lees bitterness and a clean aftertaste.

Serving suggestions:

The “sweet” and “kind” profile full of fruits (mainly banana and apple) allows you to use it raw, give or take, in anything you want. Also, for cooking, the best option would be bakery: it gives a delicate fruit flavor without any bitterness.
