THE LEGACY EVOO 500ml
I came to you through the centuries, from a place where your ancestors walked…
For the past 100 years I have grown and nurtured the traditional Greek family.
Through the agony, the effort and the passion of the native people who cultivate me, I have mastered my own organoleptic profile, that of the perfectly balanced, tasty and most traditional olive oil possible.
My trees span more than a few generations and my space is habituated by dozens of old, culturally-significant trees, located at a mount altitude of 500-550 meters.
I am the ancestral Legacy of classically and traditionally harvested EVOOs.
PREMIUM VS. CONVENTIONAL OLIVE OIL
There are many factors that demarcate an Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) from Premium to Conventional classification. The most pivotal of these variables lye in the:
(a) Acidity of the oil;
(b) Territorial Origin of the olive oil;
(c) Size of its production;
(d) Uniqueness of its Variety;
(e) Methods of oil extraction.
The cognitive characteristics also play a paramount role in this distinction. The most notable of these variants are the:
(f) Intensities in the fruity, bitter and spicy notes;
(g) Organic Certifications
(h) Sustainability of the produce;
(i) Tests that the final product has passed;
(j) Merits that it has received within licensed competitions;
(k) Conditions of the Oil Storage;
(l) Type of Packaging that it is stocked into.
