Tasting and serving
Green fruitiness with notes of grass, tomato and almond. A smooth opening leads to moderate bitterness and pepperiness. Drizzle uncooked over salads, grilled vegetables, white fish or bread with tomato.
Llàgrimes del Canigó, at the foot of the Pyrenees
Llàgrimes del Canigó makes its oils in Agullana, in the Alt Empordà, where the olive groves look up at the Canigó massif and the tramontana wind blows hard for much of the year. Its name, «tears of the Canigó», evokes the snow-capped mountain that presides over the landscape.
The Auream range is made exclusively from Argudell, a native Empordà variety little known outside Catalonia, which gives fine oils full of nuance. At Espai Oleum we treat it as one of the treasures of the house: Catalan oil from a neighbouring county, with a personality like no other.
Half a litre is the format we sell most in Mataró: it fits any kitchen, is finished at a good pace and lets Argudell become part of the daily routine. Customers who come back for it tend to say the same thing: it makes food more beautiful without any effort showing.
How to enjoy Auream Argudell PDO Empordà

With half a litre in the kitchen, Argudell keeps company from breakfast to dinner: morning pa amb tomàquet, a midday salad and baked fish at night. A drizzle over a suquet is pure Costa Brava.
