Description
Mix & Match Northern Greece Northern Greece is the geographical part that includes Macedonia and Thrace. Macedonia, and more specifically eastern Macedonia is diverse, with significant mountainous volumes, fertile basins enclosed by hills and several rivers. The climate depends on the morphology of the soil, but in the semi-flat areas approaching the sea breeze of the North Aegean, it is temperate and is suitable for a number of crops such as olive cultivation. With native olive varieties such as Thasitiki and Halkidiki, which derive their name from the nearby island of Thassos and the well-known region of Halkidiki, the Elaikos Blend Selection EVOO is produced, by combining three different varieties (Thasitiki, Halkidiki and Koroneiki) offering complex fruity aromas and spicy notes. By isolating the Thasitiki variety, known worldwide for the production of the Throumba Thassos table olive, the Elaikos Thasitiki Selection EVOO was created, with rich fruity aromas and flavors. Thrace, the northernmost tip of Greece, has an important mountainous terrain but also semi-flat and lowland areas where the climate is temperate, almost Mediterranean, thanks to the sea breeze of the Thracian Sea. The differentiation of altitude conditions creates local microclimates, where different types of cultivation are hosted, including the olive. Specifically, in the primitive area of Makri, where the Makri olive variety thrives exclusively, is the Konos hill, from which the Konos Premium Edition EVOO derives its name, a monovarietal extra virgin olive oil of the local variety with complex aromas and flavour balance.Additional information
