The Olive tree… “I am the daughter of the sun, the most carressed of all.

For years the love of a father, has held me in this world.
Until I fall in death, my eye seeks him.
I am the olive, held in honour” …by Kostis Palamas

The olive oil we trade is from the Koroneiki variety harvested at Messinia province, a well known variety that origins from the most famous olive tree in the world. The olives that come from this tree are small but have a high yield of olive oil of 27% of exceptional quality. The local eco-system provides natural food for the trees.This is where out quality product came from.

Koroneiki is an old greek variety of olives and belongs to the varieties of small semen (oil content 20 – 27%). The meticulous process of harvesting the olives at the right degree of maturity and the optimum processing conditions of them lead to the production of extra virgin olive oil with a high percentage of phenols, which ensures stability and organoleptic quality properties, elements that contributed to its characterization as “variety of universal heritage” by the International Olive Oil Council.
