Sustainable and organic farming
We are proud of our organic olive oil, as we contribute to the sustainability of the environment through organic farming, while offering a top quality product.
Production by cold extraction
Extra virgin means that the fully ripe olives are carefully picked from the tree and transported undamaged from the olive farmers to the oil mill after only a few hours. There, only the best olives are sorted out, freed from twigs and branches, processed without chemical additives and gently pressed (temperature below 27°C.). This process is called cold extraction. In this process, the fruit water is immediately separated from the extracted oil.
The queen among the olives
Our Minotaur of Crete extra virgin Cretan organic olive oil is 100% extracted from the famous variety of the Koroneiki olive, which was already known in ancient times, and is one of the finest olive oils in the world. The Koroneiki olive captivates with its fine aroma and fruity taste. The fully ripe olives are carefully picked by hand by olive farmers, transported in baskets and brought directly to the mill.
