The word agoureleo comes from the Greek words ágouros and éleon, which means unripe oil. Agoureleo is made from fresh, green, unripe olives and is completely natural. Our olives are lovingly harvested exclusively by hand. We do not use any tools or nets and harvest directly into the crate. We do not use damaged fruit or fallen fruit. Harvest time is September and October, when the olives are still green and unripe.
Like our Pangeaa extra virgin olive oil, our Pangaea Agoureleo has a very low acidity of less than 0.3%, well below the legal limit for extra virgin olive oils of 0.8%. It is delicious and at the same time rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids as well as important vitamins and valuable minerals. Due to the early harvest, it is intensely fruity and has a higher proportion of polyphenols. This makes it a special, unique olive oil with added value for our health.
We recommend using our Pangaea Agoureleo exclusively in cold dishes. You can use it to refine your salads and dips, create an aromatic pesto or simply enjoy it with a piece of fresh white bread, some salt and oregano. The latter tastes particularly fruity and delicious. To preserve the valuable polyphenols as much as possible, you should not heat our Pangaea Agoureleo.
Our Pangaea olive oils are natural. Any cloudiness caused by suspended matter is completely natural. Store in a cool, dark place and protect from direct sunlight.

Griechenland ist untrennbar mit hochwertigem, naturbelassenem Olivenöl verbunden - es ist so unverzichtbar wie das Meer, die Berge, der betörende Duft wilder Kräuter und die herzliche Gastfreundschaft der Menschen. In zahlreichen griechischen Familien hat die Produktion von Olivenöl für den Eigenbedarf eine jahrhundertealte Tradition. Die Leidenschaft für die Landwirtschaft und authentische, erstklassige Produkte wird von Generation zu Generation weitergegeben. Auch in unserer Familie ist es nicht anders. Fotini und Kostas Lakirdakis haben viele Jahre in Deutschland verbracht, bevor sie 2005 in ihre alte Heimat im Norden Griechenlands zurückkehrten, um ihren Traum von einem Leben als Selbstversorger mit eigenen Olivenhainen zu erfüllen. Seitdem widmet sich unsere Familie mit unermüdlichem Einsatz und Hingabe der Pflege und Kultivierung unserer Olivenhaine. Im Herbst werden die Oliven...
