1 RATED AWARD WINNING EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL bpOur olive oil is meticulously produced at its source in the Kolymvari region of Crete, nestled amidst the azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Here, olives transcend their simple agricultural status to become an integral component of the region s life, culture, and cuisine.
