The Early Harvest Unfiltered Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Thasos – awarded Product of the Year 2025 – is one of the rarest and finest olive oils in its category.
It is produced from the very first harvest of the season, made exclusively from handpicked, still-green olives collected between mid-October and mid-November and cold-pressed within just a few hours.
Because Early Harvest oil requires nearly twice as many olives as conventional extra virgin olive oil, production is naturally limited – and nutrient density exceptionally high.
With an acidity of just 0.25–0.45, it stands among the absolute elite: rich in polyphenols, unfiltered, and entirely unadulterated in structure. Its flavor profile is vibrant, fresh, and fruity, with elegant bitterness and the characteristic peppery pungency that defines true early-harvest oil.
The high concentration of oleacein and oleocanthal also makes this oil a valuable companion for a conscious, health-oriented diet. Both bioactive compounds are known for their strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and are considered key components of the Mediterranean lifestyle, supporting heart health, vascular function, and cognitive performance.
- Bitterness on the tongue: a sign of high oleacein content
- Peppery finish in the throat: the hallmark of oleocanthal – an indicator of exceptional quality
An olive oil with true origin and character — for connoisseurs and gourmets who appreciate purity, authenticity, and nature at its finest — and who want to taste the difference and feel it.
