8K Koroneiki Athinolia EVOO 3l
8K Koroneiki Athinolia EVOO 3l is an extra virgin olive oil from the Koroneiki and Athinolia varieties. The particular climate and soil conditions that prevail in this area are known for the production of high quality and nutritional value olive oil.
Following consistently all the production stages from tree to the final storage, a balanced and complex organoleptic profile is ensured. On the nose, medium-intensity fruity aromas of herbs and spices emerge, while a discreet presence of pepper follows us, giving a special character to its aroma. The moderately intense bitter sensation in the mouth paves the way for an equally moderate spicy element with hints of nuts that capture the taste.
Description
8K – 8K Athinolia Premium EVOO 3lThe company 8K, namely 8 thousand, acquired its name from the history of eight thousand years of existence of the olive tree in the Mediterranean region. It is a family business with a long tradition in olive growing and in the production of high quality organic extra virgin olive oil. The olive groves are located in the area of Monemvasia, in the region of Laconia in the south Peloponnese, at an altitude of 300 meters, in a semi-rocky landscape, with an ideal microclimate for the cultivation of olive trees.
Following the strictest practices required by organic farming, only natural organic fertilizer is used from the sheep found in the olive groves who are responsible both for the fertilization and the cleaning of the olive groves from dry and wild grasses.
The olive harvest begins in October when the fruit is still unripe and is carried out exclusively by mechanical methods. The olive extraction is performed on the harvest day, following the cold pressed method in a cooperating two-phase small-scale olive mill. The natural juice obtained is rich in aromas and flavours and after filtering, it is stored in stainless steel tanks at ideal temperature conditions to ensure its duration over time.
The varieτies cultivated for the production of 8K Koroneiki Athinolia EVOO 3l are Koroneiki and Athinolia.
