Crete is an island with 8 internationally recognized, protected Designation of Origin areas. 90% of the oil produced on the island every year is extra virgin olive oil. Because of its geographical position in the very South of Europe, the effect the sea has on the olives, the island’s terrain and its perfect sunshine and soil conditions, Crete is internationally recognized as the ideal place to grow olive trees.
100 % COLD EXTRACTION
In the olive mill, the temperature during the production process never exceeds 27oC. The temperature of the olive paste is never above 27oC which means that the oil never loses any of its nutritional value
