A testament to both locality and tradition, Athinoelia is considered one of the oldest Greek varieties, one that is unique to Laconia. “Athino-elia” is the olive of Athena, the powerful goddess that, according to myth, competed with God Poseidon over the patronage of Athens, only to defeat him by gifting the city with an olive tree. Athinoelia is pure and fresh. Around early harvest, the young olives are handpicked and immediately taken to the master-miller to be cold-pressed within hours, securing their feisty temperament that gives the golden green oil depth and a low acidic character.

    A beautiful vessel that can be refilled and reused.

    The result of unique craftsmanship, the painted glass bottle that serves as a protective guardian of the EVOO (since it is extra sensitive to oxygen and light) is a soft beige, paying homage to the divine femininity of both goddesses Irida and Athena. Designed to inspire both palate and site, envisioned as a centerpiece of special moments that brings people together. Created and produced in Greece, with sustainability in mind, it is a beautiful vessel that can be refiled and reused.
