Unique recipes and gourmet products from Llàgrimes del Canigó

Llàgrimes del Canigó is the brand under which we develop the most creative and gourmet aspect of CANIGOOIL.

It was born from our desire to explore new ways of working with olive oil and create different products that are easy to enjoy and have a recognizable identity. What began with a small selection of olive oil-based condiments has evolved into a universe of flavors that also includes sauces, vinegars, jams, and other gourmet specialties.

Each product is created with the same philosophy: selecting quality ingredients, developing balanced recipes, and offering flavors capable of bringing something special to everyday cooking.


THE ORIGIN: OUR OLIVE OIL-BASED CONDIMENTS

The first Llàgrimes del Canigó products were our olive oil-based condiments.

We wanted to go beyond conventional flavored oils and create recipes with intensity, personality, and a clearly recognizable flavor. So we began experimenting with natural ingredients, spices, aromatic herbs, mushrooms, and citrus fruits.

This process led to the creation of some of the products that have defined our trajectory, such as our condiments made from:

  • Chili, garlic, and five peppers.
  • Black truffle and white truffle.
  • Porcini mushrooms.
  • Lemon.
  • Basil.
  • Garlic and parsley.
  • Thyme.
  • Orange.

These creations allowed us to differentiate ourselves, open new markets, and bring our way of understanding gastronomy to people from different countries. The current page already presents the condiments as the original core of this product line, but it is necessary to expand the story to reflect everything that Llàgrimes del Canigó encompasses today.

RECIPES WITH THEIR OWN IDENTITY

Each product is born from a development process in which we seek the balance between the main ingredient and the olive oil base.

We don't want the flavors to simply add aroma. We want each recipe to have character, intensity, and a clear utility in the kitchen. That's why we try different combinations, proportions, and preparation times until we achieve a balanced and easily recognizable result.

We work with selected ingredients and, whenever possible, prioritize raw materials linked to our surroundings or to producers who share our way of understanding the product.

The goal is to create condiments that can transform simple recipes: a pizza, a pasta dish, vegetables, meat, fish, an appetizer, or simply a slice of bread.

 

THE FLAVORS THAT DEFINED OUR BRAND

The chili condiment was one of our first creations and remains one of Llàgrimes del Canigó's most representative products. It combines bird's eye chili, garlic, and a blend of five peppers to achieve an aromatic, intense, and balanced spiciness.

The black truffle and white truffle condiments represent our more gourmet side, designed to add depth to pasta dishes, risottos, eggs, potatoes, meats, or cheeses.

The porcini mushroom condiment was born from the desire to capture the character of mushrooms and turn it into a versatile product, capable of enriching rice dishes, creams, sauces, and autumn recipes.

From these first creations, we expanded the collection with citrus, herbal, and Mediterranean flavors, always maintaining a common identity.


MUCH MORE THAN CONDIMENTS

Over the years, we understood that the philosophy of Llàgrimes del Canigó could be applied to other gastronomic categories.

In Girona and Empordà, there is a great diversity of products, recipes, and small producers. We saw the opportunity to select these creations, reinterpret them from our perspective, and bring them to a wider audience.

Therefore, Llàgrimes del Canigó currently includes:

  • Olive oil-based condiments.
  • Sauces and olivadas.
  • Vinegars.
  • Jams.
  • Packs and gourmet specialties.
  • New gastronomic products that we will be incorporating into the collection.

The intention is not to create an unlimited catalog, but to develop a coherent selection of products with flavor, personality, and a story behind them.

 

SAUCES AND OLIVADAS

Our sauces and olivadas are designed to accompany appetizers, breads, cheeses, meats, fish, and Mediterranean recipes.

We seek pleasant textures, clear flavors, and easy-to-use products. Each preparation must work both as an ingredient within a recipe and directly on the table.

 

VINEGARS WITH CHARACTER

Vinegars are part of our desire to explore essential ingredients of Mediterranean cuisine and give them greater prominence.

We select products with balanced acidity, aromatic depth, and the ability to add contrast to salads, marinades, vegetables, meats, and reductions.

Among them is our reserve red wine vinegar, aged in barrels, a creation with personality and multiple gastronomic possibilities.

 

JAMS AND NEW SPECIALTIES

Jams allow us to work with flavors from another perspective and explore sweet, savory, and sweet and sour combinations.

These products are designed to accompany breakfasts, cheeses, meats, appetizers, and desserts. Our extra olive oil jam especially represents this search for different recipes linked to the origin of CANIGOOIL.

This category will continue to grow with new creations that fit the values and gastronomic universe of Llàgrimes del Canigó.


A BRAND IN CONSTANT EVOLUTION

Llàgrimes del Canigó was born from olive oil-based condiments, but its purpose has always been broader: to explore flavors, reinterpret products from our surroundings, and create gastronomic proposals with their own identity.

From Agullana, we continue to develop new recipes and categories, combining tradition, creativity, and a contemporary presentation.

We want each product to make sense within the collection, to be easy to enjoy, and to convey our way of understanding gastronomy: close to its origin, open to innovation, and made to inspire emotion.
