Greek Classics

This USDA-certified organic, cold-pressed olive oil has an intense fruity flavor, with a delicate almond aftertaste and color. Philippos pays special attention to how he selects his olives in order to consistently guarantee the oil’s freshness, full body and extra low acidity. The unique taste of Koroneiki olives also offers you an excellent dose of nutritional elements such as polyphenols, vitamin B, and sterols.

The elegant bottle and second non-drip pouring spout make for an olive oil that is both gorgeous and practical on your kitchen counter. The sturdy box also help make it a gourmet gift for your favorite foodie.
