For lovers of the good life. Fine gastronomy. For lovers of the most demanding quality. For lovers of innovation. And for those who love to be surprised! A few months ago, we brought you an incredible journey for your five senses and invited you to join a true sensory adventure. Its name is Oleo Latte. And just by its name, you can imagine it has to do with our passion, extra virgin olive oil, and with the extraordinary world of coffee and tea.
We have already introduced it to you , and you have seen us take it to every corner of the planet where we set up an Almazaras de la Subbética stand, winning the admiration of everyone who has come to try a sip of this delicacy. It is an exclusive EVOO, obtained from a selection of our best oils, for its aroma, unique flavour, and its perfect integration with coffee and tea .
Ricardo Vélez, also prestigiously recognised as the ‘Cocoa Chef’, was responsible for directing and supervising our innovative product, setting the guidelines that will lead you to immerse yourself in an original barista gastronomic experience. A ‘Set Barista Experience’ that offers you all the necessary tools to prepare your own ‘Oleo Latte’ by emulsifying our EVOO with milk or a plant-based drink, and then with coffee or tea. A festival for your five senses! An emulsifier, a measuring spoon, and the bottle with the special extra virgin olive oil for emulsifying… And now we want to go a step further and give you ideas on different ways to enjoy it. Take note!
And since at Almazaras de la Subbética we can’t stop creating and seeking your delight, today we want to give you the steps to follow to discover the versatility of Oleo Latte.
1.- The classic ‘Oleo Latte’. Put a spoonful of Oleo Latte EVOO in a jug. Add 100ml of milk or a plant-based drink, either hot or cold. Emulsify the contents for about 30/40 seconds, or until you get a creamy texture. Then pour the emulsified milk with Oleo Latte into a cup of coffee or tea. A unique gourmet experience awaits you!
2. ‘Cappuccino Oleo Latte’. Less coffee than the previous combination, aiming to get more foam in our mixture. Again, we pour 100ml of milk or a plant-based drink into a container. Next, we add a spoonful of Oleo Latte. We continue by emulsifying the mixture for approximately 30 seconds, until the desired texture is obtained. We pour the contents into a cup with our coffee and… voilà!
3. ‘Chai Oleo Latte’. Chai… and we are transported to India with that fusion of tea and aromatic spices. Today, we add the EVOO experience. We then mix the three products: the milk or plant-based drink, the Chai itself, and the spoonful of our Oleo Latte. We proceed to emulsify it, ideally at a temperature between 60 and 65 degrees, until we get the desired creaminess and texture, enhancing all the aromas. We serve it in a container, preferably glass, sprinkle it with a little cocoa powder, and it’s ready to drink!
4. ‘Oleo Latte Infusion’. Do you prefer an infusion or tea, instead of coffee? Perfect too! Mix your milk or plant-based drink with a spoonful of our Oleo Latte EVOO, and emulsify following the steps above. Afterwards, pour the contents into your cup with the infusion or tea.
5. ‘Oleo Latte Frappé’. A spoonful of Oleo Latte in a glass, to which we will add the milk or plant-based drink and mix it with our emulsifier. Once the desired texture is obtained, we add the coffee and a large ice cube. Super appealing in summer! The Oleo Latte Frappé can also be prepared with instant coffee, the EVOO, milk or water, and ice; we blend it for approximately 40/50 seconds and it’s ready!!
As you can see, this is an extraordinary, novel and healthy product, but one that maintains the essence of the EVOOs from Almazaras de la Subbética and the values that guide us, promoting the tasting and enjoyment of our ancestral heritage.
Our Oleo Latte is an oil that evokes vegetable gardens brimming with produce, fruit trees with their green fruit, and the smell of freshly cut grass under the shade of a walnut tree. Nuances of apple, tomato plant, aromatic herbs, artichoke, green almond freshly picked from the tree… When tasted, our oil leaves a very pleasant spicy sensation that permeates the entire mouth, as if you were eating peppercorns. Floral, balanced, elegant, and with a lot of personality. In other words, pure poetry for your five senses.
