Reserva Familiar Picual 2020 Harvest - 0.75 Liter / 25.4 Ounce - Spanish Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Jaen, Andalusia

Was looking for good olive oil because these days the olive oil at the grocery store can be hit or miss. Did some research on Reddit and found this brand. Can confirm this olive oil is great, tastes like real olives and has a rich golden olive color.

This is the real deal. Compared to EVOO i got at the grocery store and there was no competition, this stuff has way more flavor and holds up to heat better. The bottle is pitch black glass that will help keep UV from damaging the flavor, the nozzle prevents drips from coming down the neck of the bottle. Its not cheap, but you get what you pay for, and what you're paying for here is quality.

This olive oil’s pretty expensive but worth it. It’s one of the best olive oil I have ever had. I actually have a spoonful every day and it really has no aftertaste at all.

This is one of our favorite brand! Taste if great and has a slight peppery flavor and smell to me. We cook with this all the time and have now started using it as a butter alternative when we make our low calorie popcorn and it is great.

I tried this brand of olive oil while on a trip in Spain. I had to take a photo and find it in the US - it is simply the best finishing extra virgin olive oil I've ever tasted. The notes are very fruity - both on the nose and the palate. This is the type of olive oil you will use more sparingly - finishing dishes, adding drizzles on items. The bottle is quite large, and considering this is a finishing oil, it will last you a long time. Product arrived on time and packaged as expected.

This is top quality olive oil from a rural farm in Jaen, Andalucia. I visited here after finding such excellent reviews in the countryside! And I had shipped back several bottles before I left Spain but I had to order more. Luckily I was able to order from Amazon, and it took awhile to receive it but the bottle arrived safely, no problem with shipping as it was perfectly and securely wrapped.

I'm not an olive-oil connoisseur, but I am a foodie so here are my tasting notes. Purchased Jan 2026. The bottle I received was harvested 2024/2025, with a best before date of 9/10/2026. I find this oil to be a gold-colored oil that has a clean-rinsing (not greasy) feel on the palette. The flavor is promptly fresh grass, with a moderate-strong peppery finish. The bitterness is very mild. When adding salt, it attains a modest buttery quality. No other flavors show up. Picual is known for its polyphenols, so the peppery is to be expected. This bottle is pretty expensive, and I while I find this oil to be good, it isn't unusual or extraordinary to my taste. The price exceeds the value for my purposes.

This was purchased as a gift for a close friend (along with some really nice balsamic vinegar). He opened it and allowed us a taste. Its a whole level nicer then anything else we have tasted. If you are used to generic olive oil from the grocery store (our go-to bottle is from Costco), this is just much fruitier with brighter flavors. Expensive but worth the money if used on salads, etc. As a side note, the amazon listing says 2020 harvest but the bottle received was from 2023 harvest.
