Our Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Throumba Olives PDO Thasos
Our organic extra virgin olive oil from Throumba olives PDO Thasos is far more than just a food product – it is the result of centuries-old tradition, careful craftsmanship, and deep respect for nature. It is made exclusively from the rare Throumba olive variety, native only to the Greek island of Thasos. This unique variety is one of the few in the world that develops its full flavor and oil content directly on the tree – a rare natural phenomenon that makes our oil truly special.
Origin with Character – Protected Designation of Origin (PDO)
The certified PDO designation guarantees that our olive oil comes exclusively from the Rachoni region on Thasos – from grove to bottling. Every drop reflects the character of the local climate, soil, and traditional cultivation methods. This designation is not only a mark of quality but also proof of authenticity and traceability.
Gentle Extraction – For the Highest Quality
The olives are hand-harvested, carefully processed, and cold-extracted at temperatures below 27 °C. This method preserves the natural aromas, valuable polyphenols, and unsaturated fatty acids, making the oil not only unique in taste but also nutritionally valuable.
Organic Certified – Purity You Can Trust
Our olive oil is organically certified and produced without chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or synthetic additives. The entire production follows strict ecological standards, regularly inspected and documented – for an olive oil that unites nature and health.
Flavor & Use
The oil is characterized by its mild, delicately fruity flavor, with a subtle bitterness and pleasant peppery finish – typical of premium Throumba olives. It is perfect for cold dishes, refining salads, antipasti, and steamed vegetables, or simply enjoyed pure with fresh bread. It is also suitable for gentle sautéing.
