Kalamata
Olive Oil

Time to go back to nature, escape the city and its noise, watch the stars at night and wake up with the birds’ singing.

Welcome to our olive grove, located in Kalamata, in the south of Greece in the region of the Peloponnese.

You might have heard of Kalamata olives, exported all over the world. Here we have decided to keep the production limited to small amounts and all natural.

We make enough olive oil for our family and our apartments in Athens where our guests can enjoy it at breakfast over fresh bread or during their meals on our rooftop restaurant.

This year we would like to share this experience with a few more friends interested in taking part with us to one of the oldest traditions in the Mediterranean:
the olive picking, pressing and tasting.

We pick our olives at an early stage, when the olive has received less water from the rainfalls that usually start later on in December.

Picking olives in late November/beginning of December gives origin to the name of the olive oil called “Agourelaio”. It has a more intense aroma as it contains less water and a greener color. We don’t care about the quantity of the oil we will obtain, but of the quality of the same as it is aimed to our family and a few more friends.

You will join us at the olive grove, will help the picking of the olives and the transportation of the same to the pressing mill. The soonest the olives get pressed after picking, the less oxidation process they undergo. We like acidity of our oil to be low so we will patiently wait our turn at the pressing mill on the same night of the picking. It is a great moment to chat with other local producers at the mill, bringing local wine, fresh bread and cheese to celebrate the first precious “olive juices” we all have been working hard for.

On the third day we will celebrate with a barbecue for everyone! We will taste local meats, veggies, wine & of course freshly pressed olive oil over bread.
