Olive varieties and blend
Marqués de Prado oils are generally blends (coupage) of several varieties, harvested at their optimal ripeness.
The composition varies depending on the batch.
For the 2025-2026 harvest: 40% Arbosana · 30% Picual · 20 % Arbequina · 10% Picudo
The Arbosana and Arbequina offer a smooth entry and bring a green fruity profile, followed by a characteristic peppery sensation in the mouth and throat, with aromas reminiscent of banana and green apple, and a pleasant aromatic persistence.
The Picual (the region’s flagship variety) provides a slight characteristic bitterness, linked to its richness in natural antioxidants, along with aromas of green leaf, tomato and citrus.
The Picudo adds complexity and character, with distinctly herbaceous notes, leading to a longer and more harmonious finish.
This oil offers a smooth, balanced and supple entry, evolving towards moderate bitterness and pungency.
