Ybarra Piquillo Pepper Stuffed Manzanilla Olives from Spain (5 oz/120 g)

These are the ultimate pimiento stuffed olives, and a hands down favorite within the La Tienda community! The sweet and smoky flavor of the piquillo pepper lifts the olive to another level of flavor. Because this is a premium product, the olives are stuffed with a whole piece of pimiento pepper. Each of these olives from Sevilla has an actual slice of fire roasted piquillo pepper harvested from the famous Lodosa region next to the vineyards of La Rioja in Northern Spain. This is quite different from the hum drum pimento stuffed olives which have blanketed America for decades. In those, the producer grinds up scraps of peppers into a paste, and mechanically squirts some of the paste into the pitted olives. Once you and your guests have tried these Piquillo stuffed olives, you will be spoiled! They will be the only ones which truly satisfy your palate. ------------ El no va mas en aceitunas rellenas de pimientos! Cada aceituna está rellena con un trozo entero de pimiento del piquillo asado al fuego de la famosa ciudad pimentera de Lodosa en la región de Navarra en el Norte de España. Dulce y ahumado, el pimiento de piquillo eleva la aceituna a otro nivel de sabor. Un favorito de La Tienda
