Our chili oil wins "THE BEST" award from Gourmet Selection in Paris
We are extremely pleased to announce that our Spicy Olive Oil, with chili, garlic, and peppers has been awarded the prestigious THE BEST prize in the oils, vinegars, and condiments category, granted by the jury of the Gourmet Selection in Paris. This recognition is not only a great honor for the entire Llàgrimes del Canigó team, but also a reward for the effort and dedication we put into each of our products.
The jury of THE BEST met on September 2nd at the Atelier du Goût de Gault & Millau to select the winners, following a pre-selection made by Vincent Ferniot in July. In a friendly and enthusiastic atmosphere, our oil was chosen for its quality and innovation. The awards ceremony will take place on Sunday, September 15th at 5:30 PM as part of the Gourmet Selection, which we will be attending with great anticipation.
Our Spicy Olive Oil: an explosion of flavor
The award-winning oil is our Spicy Olive Oil, a unique creation made with our best extra virgin olive oil from the Costa Brava, accompanied by bird's eye chili, Banyoles garlic, and a careful blend of five peppers. Each ingredient has been meticulously selected to achieve a perfect balance of flavors.
The secret of this oil lies in the ideal combination of bird's eye chili, one of the spiciest in the world, and the unmistakable touch of Jesús's father's garden garlic, located in Agullana, who has been cultivating his Banyoles garlic for over 40 years. To this is added our special blend of peppers: black, white, Jamaican, pink, and green, which provides that aromatic and complex touch that delights those who try our oil.
Recognition of artisanal work
Receiving these types of awards is a source of immense pride for us. Behind every bottle of oil we produce, there is an artisanal process, where we take care of every detail to preserve the natural properties of all ingredients as much as possible. Our philosophy has always been to opt for quality over quantity, and this recognition motivates us to continue on the same path.
Furthermore, these awards are an incentive to continue experimenting, creating new products and combinations that surprise and delight our customers. Our goal is always to maintain the essence of tradition, while continuing to innovate and seek new ways to enhance the flavors of our oils.
We look forward to seeing you at Gourmet Selection!
We invite you to visit us at our stand D113 during the Gourmet Selection fair, which will be held on September 15th and 16th at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles - Hall 5.2. It will be an excellent opportunity to meet us, celebrate this achievement together, and, of course, taste our award-winning Spicy Olive Oil along with our other creations.
Thank you to everyone who has trusted us and supported us on this journey. This award is also for you!
