Product History
Extra virgin olive oil is the purest form of oil that comes straight from the olive trees, without having undergone industrial processing. It has a strong fruity taste and the distinct aroma of freshly cut olives. A pleasant bitterness and a short- term burning sensation in the esophagus can be present. With a striking 75% of Greek olive oil production to be extra virgin, Greece holds the first position worldwide in its production. Expressed in oleic acid, Extra Virgin Olive oil is the olive oil whose acidity does not exceed 0.8%. Acidity is one of the main criteria for the olive oil quality and the lower the acidity, the higher the quality.

Chalkidiki

The peninsula of Chalkidiki is located in Northern Greece - in Central Macedonia. The particular shape of the peninsula looks like three open outstretched fingers, each forming a smaller peninsula - Kassandra, Sithonia and Athos (Mount Athos). According to historical data, Chalkidiki was colonized in the 8th century by Chalkians and Eretrians. There are records of it in the history of the Persian Wars, the Athenian alliance, during the time of the Macedonians, the Romans and Byzantium, right until this day. Chalkidiki is famous for its natural beauty, since it boasts about its lush vegetation, running waters, springs, lakes, creeks and beaches with crystal clear water surrounded by green forests with century-old trees. Its villages, mountainous or coastal, are particularly picturesque with a strong element of traditional architecture.
