This premium organic extra virgin olive oil, of the Athinoelia variety, comes from the village of Agioi Apostoloi, on the southern tip of the Peloponnese.

This variety is found exclusively in this region and is therefore a specialty.

A harmonious olive oil of the highest quality!

The Athinoelia variety was named after the goddess Athena, when she gave this variety to the Athenians in a competition with Poseidon and thus won the favor of the people.

Our producer, Georgios, is the 4th generation to run the olive grove with around 1100 trees.

A premium class olive oil, directly from olives, obtained exclusively by mechanical means. Cold extracted.

Our Athinoelia organic olive oil is one that comes from olives that have been harvested by hand early and in a green state. Immediately after the fruit is harvested, it is brought to our mill in crates within a few hours, which is very important to prevent the olives from oxidizing. There, Dimitri and his son wait with the freshly washed mill for the fruit to continue the pressing process.

This way we can ensure that only our olives are processed and that our expectations are met.

It is ideal for everyday use and is versatile, even for sautéing.

Taste: Mild, fruity taste with subtle almond aromas. The attributes of Biogea's Athinoelia Premium Olive Oil are a gentle bitterness with a medium-sharp finish, which comes from an increased polyphenol content.

It is pure and filtered.

Storage:

Light: The most important thing to start with: don't buy oils that are bottled in transparent bottles, regardless of the fact that it may look great. Don't put the dark bottle or canister under any lamp in the kitchen either. There should always be a dark place for the oil you have worked so hard to make!

Temperature: it should be cool. Olive oil does not need to be kept in the fridge, but it should not be kept right next to heat sources either.

Bottle: always seal well. Oxygen is not good for the oil, so please always make sure that the container is tightly closed. This preserves the aromas for longer and prevents the oxidation process from accelerating.
