Royal

It is a native variety of the province of Jaén, although it growth is limited to the province’s northern mountain range. It offers oils that contrast with the predominant variety produced in the province, the picual. It is a sweet, but very fruity oil, in which fig notes predominate. The dark purple olives produce a smaller quantity but higher quality oil. Royal olives and olive oil face competition from especially from Picual olives, which ripen earlier and contain more oil.

Royal characteristic
