What are the differences between Greek olives and Spanish olives?
Our Greek green olives are typically available in larger calibers and are hand-stuffed, ensuring higher quality and attention to detail. Kalamata olives are available from April onwards, as they require a natural fermentation period after harvest to develop their characteristic flavor and texture.
Why should I buy Greek olive snacks?
Our olive snacks are convenient and mess-free, with no brine, making them easy to enjoy anytime, anywhere. They offer a variety of flavors and allow flexibility to create your own recipes, while also being ideal for retail, food service, and Private Label opportunities.
Why is Greek extra virgin olive oil different from Spanish, Tunisian, or Turkish olive oil?
About 80% of Greek olive oil is extra virgin, which is especially valued for its high polyphenol content, natural antioxidants linked to strong health benefits. This is largely due to the Koroneiki olive variety, which is naturally rich in these compounds.
Combined with early harvesting and careful cold extraction, Greek olive oil retains more of its polyphenols, resulting in a more intense flavor, with a characteristic bitterness and a peppery finish, as well as superior nutritional value.
What makes Greek balsamic vinegar and glaze unique?
Greek balsamic vinegar and glaze are made from carefully selected grapes and aged naturally to develop rich, balanced flavors. They offer a smooth, aromatic taste that enhances both traditional and modern dishes, making them versatile for cooking, finishing, and gourmet presentations.
What makes Greek peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, and roasted eggplant puree special?
Greek peppers are naturally fermented using traditional methods, enhancing their flavor and preserving their quality. Similarly, Greek sun-dried tomatoes and roasted eggplant puree are crafted with traditional techniques, offering authentic taste, rich texture, and premium quality for culinary use.
What makes Greek Feta unique?
Greek feta is traditionally made from 70% sheep’s milk and 30% goat’s milk. The animals graze freely on diverse pastures, where the rich variety of herbs and plants produces high-quality milk. Greek feta also has a characteristic moisture (max 56%) content that ensures its creamy texture and authentic flavor.
