Medicinal EVOO From Selected Hilltops
Specially selected hilltops of the Acropolis orchard are marked for Medicinal certified organic cultivation, ensuring the highest quality olives. We have clearly designated the territory of our organic area, which produces some of the highest levels of phenolic antioxidants in the world. This is the olive oil you can keep in your medicine cabinet, rich in health-boosting properties.
Geographical Perfection
Our estate is located right on the coast of the Aegean Sea, kissed by the salty air year-round. It enjoys the most sunlight hours of any region in Europe. The elevation and rolling hills create the perfect growing conditions for our olive trees. That’s why our village is home to the world’s oldest olive tree. If you look even further back in time, you’ll find the Minoan civilization, 5,000 years ago, trading olive oil with the world.
Our Mill
We press our olives at our family-operated mill, where they are meticulously washed using fresh water before every pressing, ensuring they are never exposed to excessive heat. Polyphenol antioxidants are created during the milling process, which is an art that takes years of practice to perfect. Milling is more important to the production of olive oil than most people realize.
One Variety
The Koroneiki olive variety is often regarded as the ‘king of olives’ due to its strength and resilience. Unlike other varieties that quickly lose freshness, Koroneiki olives preserve their aroma, taste, and nutritional value over time, offering a richness that endures. It’s a favourite of olive oil foodies and connoisseurs alike! And that peppery pop? That indicates the oil’s high polyphenol content – an antioxidant renowned for its health-boosting properties. Make great taste your tradition with Acropolis Organics live Oil. Your tastebuds will thank you!
