Organic Greek Kalamata PDO Olive Oil, Odysea, 500ml

Monovarietal extra virgin olive oil, produced from organically grown Koroneiki olives in the Kalamata region, an area acclaimed for the production of superior quality olive oil and awarded PDO status. 

Kalamata region located in Peloponnese, the southernmost peninsula of mainland Greece, provides an ideal climate for the cultivation of olives, with mild winters, long hot summers and moderate wind. The name Kalamata refers to the mountainous area in the south of Greece and not the olive variety used for the oil, which is a common misconception.

A well-balanced olive oil with medium fruitiness and a light to medium pungency & pepperiness. Soft green salad leaves with lettuce and cucumber open the flavours in the mouth giving way to stronger herbaceous tones with delicate spicy aromas of basil & red apple, then finishing with lingering notes of leafy greenery & nuts.

Koroneiki olives variety is high in Monounsaturated fats & rich in polyphenols.
