Epikouros extra virgin olive oil 0,75 L

Epikouros olive oil is obtained from the variety Koroneiki, grown in the Peloponnese region.

The olive groves are being monitored by Epikouros agronomists Nikos Platanos and Labis Christopoulos throughout the whole year to achieve the maximum quality of the olives until the harvest period from November till January.

Immediately after the crop the olives are transported to the oil mills and are gently cold extracted (below 25˚C) within a few hours. 

The result is top quality olive oil: medium fruity, medium bitter and pungent.
Ideal to be added fresh or cooked to the food.

For the organoleptic assessment of extra virgin olive oils Epikouros production responsible Michalis Magourilos and quality manager Christos Adamopoulos are certified panelists from the Kalamata University olive oil panel which is recognized by the International Olive Oil Council.

Storage and bottling is made in the Epikouros factory in Kalamata.
