What is so special about the Greek olive oil that makes it such a desirable product not just to the final consumer, but also to many olive oil producing countries that have to mix their domestic product varieties with olive oil varieties originating from Greece. Maybe it is the added value of the health benefits that our Extra Virgin olive oils possess. Or maybe it is the unique climate and soil type in combination with the Greek olive varieties that produce a result close to perfection.
The health benefit claims for olives oils with certain characteristics where our varieties dominate this market segment and make them desirable, have been approved by the European Food Safety Authority (Commission Regulation (EU) 432/2012).
One thing is certain. The epitomy of taste and quality starts and ends here.
