A place where time seems to be woven into the olive fruit. Olive oil is not just our main product; it is an integral part of our culture, the Cretan diet<\/b>, and our very existence.

The validation of our efforts came through dozens of awards<\/b> in top international competitions: from New York (NYIOOC<\/b>) and London, to Berlin, Israel, Canada, and Japan. We were especially proud when we were awarded as the Best Olive Oil in the World<\/i><\/b> (Best in Class) for our Koroneiki variety<\/b>.
