Sophos Extra Virgin Olive Oil is cultivated in the small town of Salmeniko, located in the regional unit of Achaea, which is in the north-west part of the Peloponnese peninsula of Greece. The cultivation of olive trees in this area dates back many hundreds of years, and the unique green olives of the tree known as Koutsouroelia produce an extra virgin olive oil of exceptional quality, aroma, and taste. For our families Olive Grove we have adopted biological farming methods, which means that the olive trees are never subject to any chemicals, hormones, antibiotics, or genetically modified organisms. Our early harvest oil always comes from the first pressing of the olives, and no chemicals or hot water are added during the process. With a mountain at its back and a natural flowing river running through it, this small historic town is perfectly located to produce some of the finest olive oil in the world!

***Greenly aroma, hints of Tomato Leaf and Green Fruit, well Balanced with a Spicy finish.

For millennia the people inhabiting the fertile valley of the Evrotas River, located at the foot of Mt. Taygetos and steps away from the ancient warrior city state of Sparta, have been producing the highest quality Extra Virgin Olive Oils. To this day Lyda Extra Virgin Olive Oil, named for the Queen of Sparta mother of the famed “Helen of Troy” is cultivated in the same lush Evrotas Valley. Our family has been producing the highest quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil for the last 250 years. We still harvest the famous “Koreneki” and “Athinolia” variety of olives by hand. This fertile land blessed by an abundance of sun and the proper amount of rain produces an extremely low acid, extra virgin olive oil that has also been proven in a 2014, Harvard study to posses a very high Phenolic EVOO compound that has been shown to have tremendous health benefits. Greece easily produces the most extra virgin olive oil in the world and the olive oil produced in the Evrotas River Valley, which dates back over 3000 years is widely accepted as amongst the worlds finest.

***Ripely aroma, well Balanced, dark Green in cloud, hints of Artichoke with a Bitter Peppery finish
