Santo Cristo Olive Oil from SCA Encarnación
Santo Cristo Olive Oil from SCA Encarnación is an Extra Virgin Olive Oil from the Sierra de Cazorla in Jaén, with a Protected Designation of Origin. It is made primarily from the Picual and Royal olive varieties, the latter native to the area.

The Picual variety gives it an intense body, with green notes and a medium-high bitterness and spiciness. The Royal variety oil provides a fresh fruitiness and a sweet aroma, with nuances of green grass, apple, and fig. Hints of tomato and artichoke are also perceived.

This oil stands out for its high resistance to rancidity, thanks to its significant vitamin E content, which makes it very long-lasting. It is produced in different formats, including organic options, and is known for its quality and for being the basis of the Mediterranean diet in the region.
