PERELLO Gordal Pitted Olives Tin

The Gordal Reina (Queen) variety comes from Sevilla in Andaluc� They are grown in �cala de Guadaira, Utrera and Los Palicios and are harvested between September and October. The fruit is large (8-12g each!) with an average yield of 100-120 olives/kg. The olives are oval in shape with an indent at the stem which can give it an almost heart-shaped appearance. The skin is thin and naturally speckled with white markings. The flesh is light green and the firm texture is good for pickling. The oil content is relatively low, therefore this variety is not usually used to make olive oil. They have a firm texture and a rich taste with a lovely balance between oiliness and acidity. An intense and juicy flavour bursts from these huge olives.
