from Crete, with Love
Premium olive oil, from our home to yours: We are proud to call the island of Crete, the birthplace of the Mediterranean Diet, home. This is where we trace our heritage, and within its stunning natural beauty and rich history, we found our inspiration: to create olive oils of unparalleled quality, here, on the island whose tradition in oil making stretches all the way back to 3000 A.D. and Minoan times.
Our History
Standing at the very core of Mediterranean cuisine, the olive tree finds its perfect expression in Greece: dominating every international top 100 list, Greek olive oil is simply unmatched when it comes to its aroma, taste and health benefits. Why is that? Because we hold ourselves to a higher standard: extra virgin olive oil makes up for the vast majority of the country’s production: a number that can get as high as 90% in Crete. In fact, it is here, in the Cretan soil, with its ideal terrain and climate, that the olive trees can truly flourish and prosper, yielding the fruit that will become part of oils of the highest quality, renowned around the world.
Nutritional Value
A nutritional treasure whose value cannot be understated, olive oil is nature’s most powerful antioxidant. Multiple studies have shown that the world-famous longevity and robustness of the Cretan people can be directly attributed to the benefits of consuming olive oil daily. Studies have shown that olive oil can strengthen the bones and lower cholesterol, blood pressure and arthritis, as well as reduce the risk of cancer and brain inflammation.
The Olivartia promise
Olivartia is a family owned business, based in Crete, founded and operated by Cretans. Hailing from the historic region of Anogia, the Xylouris family has carried the legacy of olive oil production for many years now, meticulously marrying tradition with innovation in the craftmanship and production of olive oils of unparalleled quality.
Our olive oil is 100% Greek, produced in our state-of-the-art facilities in Messara, right in the heart of Crete, home of one of three Cretan variations registered as Protected Designation of Origin products, ensuring not only that the freshest olives are used in the production of the olive oil (current harvest only), but also that the quality of our products is ensured through quantifiable standards, recognized around the world. This is how we are able to produce a product of superior quality while maintaining our competitive pricing.
