The Flavor of Tradition: Wrinkled Black Olive from Aragon
We invite you to rediscover the purest and most traditional flavor with the wrinkled black olive from Aragon by La Masrojana. Made with the prestigious Empeltre variety, this olive owes its characteristic appearance to a slow, natural curing process, an ancestral method that slightly dehydrates the fruit to concentrate its flavor to the maximum. The result is an intense, flavorful bite full of personality, ideal for the most demanding palates seeking a genuine product.
Qualities of a Unique Olive
- 100% Empeltre Variety: Made exclusively with the native olive of Aragon, famous for its deep flavor with notes reminiscent of almond and an elegant bitterness.
- Slow, Natural Curing: The curing process is carried out slowly, in the traditional style of Bajo Aragón, without artificial colors or additives, which gives it its wrinkled appearance as a seal of authenticity.
- Intense and Concentrated Flavor: The slight dehydration during curing concentrates the natural juices and oils of the olive, offering a much more powerful flavor experience than olives in brine.
- Fleshy and Firm Texture: Despite its appearance, the olive maintains a fleshy texture and a firm pulp that easily comes away from the pit, offering a very satisfying bite.
- Ideal for Purists: Perfect to enjoy on its own, dressed only with a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, or to add an intense touch of flavor to salads, cod dishes, or gourmet pizzas.
The Reason for the Wrinkle: A Seal of Authenticity
Unlike the smooth, shiny black olives that are often artificially treated to get their color, the wrinkle on our Empeltre olive is the visible proof of a traditional and natural curing method. This process, often done only with salt, extracts some of the water from the fruit, intensifying its flavor in a way that no other method can achieve. It is the beauty of imperfection, the unmistakable mark of the authentic.
A Flavor that Tastes of the Land
The flavor of the Empeltre olive cured in this way is deep and complex. You will find an elegant and characteristic bitterness of the variety, notes reminiscent of nuts, and a long, persistent aftertaste. It is the ideal accompaniment for full-bodied red wines, cured cheeses, and rustic breads. A true journey to the heart of Bajo Aragón in every bite.
Enjoy the intensity and purity of a traditional appetizer. Add the Wrinkled Black Olive from Aragon to your cart and bring a genuine and memorable flavor to your table.
