Making a walk in our olive grove, we unleash that entire ancient Greek element that our ancestors left behind.
One realizes immediately the love that has been given generously to these olives by taking care of them
with their own leaves and fertilizer from the noble animal of our land, the goat. Nourishment takes place away
from its roots at the end of its sacred shadow. The goat fertilizer is excellent because it contains on average
one kilogram of nitrogen: 4 nitrogen, 2 phosphoric acid and 4 pots. The olive leaves, which we use here for fertilizers,
improve the texture and structure of the soil, help in its aeration, and its ability to retain water. They enhance
the fertility of the olive trees and the development of the health of their root system. Olive leaves contain small
amounts of Potassium, Nitrogen, Calcium, Phosphorus as well as trace elements such as boron, which are essential
for the olive tree. The natural juice of the olive, pure and rich in nutrients, as nature gives it, is the most valuable
product on the family table.
The care of our olive grove is daily and is done
by specialists under the care of an agronomist.
The collection is done at the end of the calendar year
(around December) and not at the beginning, because
this is achieved with better acidity. The measurements
make us proud as the acidity reaches just 0.16!
Some gather in the months of January and February
when the olive is leaner and gives us more oil and some
others make the harvest in early November, which gives
us a bitter taste in the oil, but in this grove, quality has
importance. In addition, for the production of a superior
quality product, for the extraction of olive oil we use
the cold-pressing method, in which the purity of the oil
is not affected by heat or chemicals. Quality is a mix of
good behaviours and daily care towards the olive from
the beginning to the end, and is achieved through
continuous effort throughout harvesting
and standardization.
