Koroneiki extra virgin olive oil comes from the Chania region, which is the most Western province of the Greek island of Crete. This olive oil is made from 100% Koroneiki olives. More than 60% of the total Greek olive harvest is Koroneiki. Koroneiki olives are famous for their refined, fruity and rich taste. The olives are relatively small and they grow well in warm and dry climates. The oldest tree that still produces olives grows in Chania. This tree, with the Greek name Elia Vouvon, has reached the respectable age or at least 2000 years. Some even estimate the tree to be 4000 years old! This tree is symbolic of the long tradition of olive cultivation on Crete.

Delicious with feta, baguette, white fish & seafood. And of course ideally suited for a delicious Greek salad! Combine with Marc de Champagne Vinegar, Strawberry Rhubarb Pulp Vinegar, or Mango Pulp Vinegar.

Dressing tip: 1/3 vinegar, 2/3 olive oil. This can obviously be adjusted to fit different palates.

Our Koroneiki EVOO has also won awards through the years; 2010 Gold award Los Angeles, 2016 Athens, 2016 France, 2016 Italy, 2016 Israel.
