Inca Inchi Oil: a tasty treat that is good for your health!

Marketed exclusively in France and Europe by Perles de Gascogne since March 2013, Inca Inchi Oil is the richest vegetable source of omega 3 available on the food market to date.

Already used for its cosmetic qualities, it is produced from Plukenetia nuts cultivated in the Peruvian Amazonian region according to traditional and organic farming methods. This oleaginous fruit, of which there are both organic and traditional varieties, is naturally rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 and vitamin E.

Inca Inchi Oil, also known as Sacha Inchi, is today a real alternative for food processing and nutraceutic industries that wish to develop their ranges of Omega 3-enriched products.

2013: A YEAR OF HAZELNUTS

It’s time for harvest! Despite the unpredictable weather, our Pautet variety hazelnut trees in Pujols (47) promise this year once again to bear great fruit! Our early-blooming hazelnut trees produce small sized fruit with an excellent flavour and very rich in fatty acids.

The oil obtained from this fruit is a natural antioxidant, recommended for cosmetic use due to its nourishing, healing and restorative qualities. Its powerful fragrance of dry toasted hazelnuts is also much appreciated in culinary circles. Learn more…

La Dépêche du Midi: Brulhois wines shine alongside local Southwestern produce

Tasting of Lot et Garonne regional produce, including Perles de Gascogne oils, at the Brulhois wine cellars in Layrac

Nathalie presented the Perles de Gascogne oils produced in Pujols : plum, hazelnut, walnut…/Photo DDM, B. G.

At the beginning of December, the Brulhois Wine Growers welcomed potential customers for an ‘open day’ in their cellars. Local food producers were there to provide tasty accompaniments to the Brulhois wine.

Foie gras and other pâtés, delights of the Julien Durance company, sat alongside the Perles de Gascogne oils. Represented at the cellar by Nathalie, the Pujols company produces oils from the cold pressing of Ente plum stones, using a method invented by the founder of Perles de Gascogne : Jean-Pierre Clavié. This oil is used in food produce as well as in cosmetics.

Caroline Delcropt of Délices de Saint-Cirice never misses these events with, amongst other things, her chocolate covered jellied fruits. Les Escoute Orchards in Penne-d’Agenais presented a variety of chocolates, including two new variations: chocolate covered figs and apricots filled with fruit cream.

And in terms of liqueurs: Aurian de Condom presented its Armagnacs, with the oldest dated 1972. From the Gagnet Farm in Mézin, a holiday gîte with homemade produce: Floc de Gascogne and Armagnac, as well as cooked duck products (fillet, liver, pâtés, rillettes, stuffed neck…). Also on display were the truffles of which Bernard Rosa, vice-president of the Lot-et-Garonne truffle growers, talks so highly.

An unexpected delight: caviar, the black pearl of Périgord, produced in Eyzies, in the Dordogne, from sturgeon reared in the Arcachon basin. Some lovely gift ideas on display in the Goulens cellar until the New Year festivities.
