Consuming evoo is all about improving your health and doing so in the most natural way. This is why all of our products are strictly Non GMO and BPA Free.
Our production process is 100% animal-free so you can pour to your heart’s delight knowing that our beloved animals can enjoy licking up our oil as much as we do.
When something is so great on its own, why add anything else? Our bottles contain just the pure, precious nectar of olive fruits that are ripened from the warmth of the Grecian sun.
It’s the old-fashioned way, but the best way. Each olive is hand selected and then carefully plucked so as to protect both the fruit and the fruit tree from being harmed in the process.
Antioxidants
Studies have shown that the antioxidants found in Extra Virgin Olive Oil may help prevent many diseases. In fact, the anti-inflammatory phenolic compound, oleocanthal, which is found in extra virgin olive oil, has the same properties as commercial pain-killers. Our "Family Reserve - Medium" has one of the highest phenolic contents an evoo can boast, with a flavor that is pleasant and award-winning.
(Good) Fats
Around 75% of extra virgin olive oil is comprised of heart healthy Monounsaturated Fats (MUFAs). These are vital to support our nervous system, build immunity and power our brain! Evoo also contains vitamins, such as E and K, and helps protect “bad” LDL cholesterol from oxidation.
Koroneiki
This variety of olive tree has been traditionally cultivated around the semi-mountainous areas of the Western Peloponnese for over ten centuries, the robust terrain helping to grow and shape this hearty species. The Koroneiki olives are known for their high quality and aromatic oil; their characteristic “green” taste is internationally renowned and perfectly complements most foods.
To produce our Family Reserve Medium
We harvest the olives early (October/November) when the fruits are still a yellowish/green in color. Although this gives a very low and costly yield of around 10% (meaning that 10kg of olives will produce 1kg of oil), it helps us achieve our desired very high antioxidant levels and delicious, medium intensity taste.
