Have you been to Greece? Then it probably hasn't escaped your notice that everything from the Greek mainland to the Greek islands is full of olive trees, which are transformed into tasty, high-quality olive oil. It is also in Crete that you will find the world's oldest olive tree, which with a circumference of 13 meters is estimated to be up to 4000 years old.

At Elenas, we ensure that you can bring the taste of Greece into your home, which is why we have collected a selection of cold-pressed first-class oils, both organic and conventional, on this page. Olive oil is not just olive oil, and a genuine Greek olive oil can make a world of difference to the taste.

Which olive oil tastes best?

Olive oil is produced in countries such as Portugal, Greece, Italy and Spain. As a rule of thumb, you can go for virgin olive oil and extra virgin olive oil, which are considered to have the best quality. The difference is the production, which is based on different quality parameters, which, however, can primarily be tasted when the oil is used cold.

If anything, Crete has a long tradition of olive oil production, and the Cretan olive oil in particular is considered some of the best in the world.

What can olive oil be used for?

Olive oil can be used in a multitude of both cold and hot dishes. At the same time, the oil is not reserved for a specific cuisine and can contribute flavor to both Nordic and Southern dishes. Use it as a fat before putting meat or vegetables on the pan, let it be the base of a wonderful vinaigrette or use it over the potatoes before they go in the oven.

However, olive oil also has a multitude of uses outside the kitchen. It is said to have good properties for both hair, nails and lips. In other words, we are absolutely sure that you will enjoy your Greek olive oil.

What healthy properties does olive oil have?

Olive oil hides a lot of healthy properties that many people may not be aware of. This is primarily due to olive oil's high content of unsaturated fatty acids as well as polyphenols and other healthy plant substances. So you don't have to count calories when you assess whether the olive oil is healthy or not, as it is healthy fats.
