Extra Virgin Olive Oil infused with porcini mushrooms, artisanally crafted in Spain by the brand Llàgrimes del Canigó. This gourmet edition blends premium Argudell olives with hand-selected fresh porcini, resulting in a product rich in aroma, well-balanced, and full of intense, complex flavors.
How to use it in the Kitchen
This infused olive oil is not just a seasoning — it’s a way to bring out natural umami depth in your dishes while adding layers of aroma and flavor. The combination of extra virgin olive oil and porcini mushrooms offers both culinary richness and nutritional value.
Traditional Emirati Dishes
A few drops over thareed, harees, or vegetable salona can enhance their natural earthiness and warmth, perfectly complementing spices like cumin, coriander, and turmeric.
International & Halal-Friendly Dishes
- Excellent for mushroom risottos, creamy soups, or roasted root vegetables.
- Adds a luxurious finish to grilled meats, baked chicken, or pasta with white sauces.
- Drizzle over eggs, stuffed vegetables, or artisan flatbreads for a sophisticated touch.
- Try it with cheeses, bruschettas, or even a warm lentil salad.
Why Porcini Mushrooms?
Porcini mushrooms are known for their deep, nutty flavor — but they’re also rich in antioxidants, dietary fiber, and natural umami compounds that enhance satiety and overall taste satisfaction. When combined with high-quality extra virgin olive oil, they help:
- Support digestion with natural prebiotics.
- Add depth without overwhelming delicate ingredients.
- Elevate plant-based and halal-friendly dishes with clean, earthy intensity.
Storage Recommendations
Store in a cool place, away from light and heat. Keep tightly sealed to preserve its natural aromas. Do not refrigerate.
About the Brand – Llàgrimes del Canigó
Llàgrimes del Canigó (CANIGOOIL SL) is the result of a passionate project born during the Covid-19 pandemic, driven by two young entrepreneurs — a lawyer and a graphic designer — who combined their talents and vision to create something truly unique. Making use of the family-owned facilities at Trull d’Agullana, they began experimenting with infused olive oils, crafting exquisite flavor profiles. From this creative journey, the brand Llàgrimes del Canigó was born.
Rooted in craftsmanship, local production, and a deep connection to the Costa Brava in northeastern Spain, the project focuses on small-scale production using primarily the native Argudell olive — a rare and limited variety. The brand’s goal is to capture the spirit of the region in every bottle and share it with the world.
The success of Llàgrimes del Canigó lies in the careful selection of olives and complementary ingredients for each infusion. Most olives are hand-harvested in the Serra de l’Albera, in the province of Girona, where the founders have built strong relationships with local farmers who share their commitment to quality and sustainability.
Each infused olive oil is the result of a meticulous process of experimentation, using only high-quality, natural ingredients.
The name Llàgrimes del Canigó refers to the sacred mountain of the Costa Brava, Canigó, and symbolizes the soul of CANIGOOIL. Every bottle reflects the passion, precision, and regional essence that define the brand.
Beyond flavor, the company is deeply committed to sustainable practices, aiming to minimize its environmental impact through responsible production and conscious packaging.
As Llàgrimes del Canigó continues to grow, its founders envision expanding to international markets with both their infused oils and the native Argudell variety, aspiring to become a benchmark in the premium olive oil industry. Their work represents the cultural and culinary richness of the Costa Brava — drop by drop.
Llàgrimes del Canigó is more than a brand: it is a tribute to resilience, craftsmanship, and entrepreneurial spirit born in challenging times.
