Empeltre olives are a type of black olive that is native to Spain, particularly the region of Aragon. They are also grown in other parts of Spain as well as in France, Italy, and other Mediterranean countries. Empeltre olives are small to medium-sized and have an oval shape with a slightly pointed tip. They are typically harvested when they are black and ripe, although they can also be harvested when they are green and unripe. When they are black, they have a soft texture and a rich, fruity flavor.
Empeltre olives are commonly used in Spanish cuisine, particularly in dishes such as tapas, salads, and stews. They are also often used to make olive oil, which is highly valued for its delicate and fruity flavor. The olives are typically harvested by hand and processed using traditional methods to preserve their flavor and quality.
