The Essence of Perfection
Our commitment to excellence knows no bounds. From the meticulous selection of olives to the precise extraction process, every step in the creation of Alexander the Great Extra Virgin Olive Oil is imbued with a singular focus: to deliver a product of unparalleled quality and distinction.
Extra virgin olive oil from Chondrolia tree
Chondrolia, one of the oldest varieties in the Mediterranean, is cultivated for both its exquisite olive oil and table olives. With an impressive height range of 5-10 meters, the trees bear fruits with an exceptional oil content of 28%. As the Chondrolia olives ripen on the branches, they naturally shed some moisture and reduce the presence of oleuropein—a compound responsible for the characteristic bitterness in olives. However, this remarkable variety has specific needs; it requires ample moisture and nutrients to flourish. During dry periods, it may not produce fruits, making it sensitive to the availability of water and nutrients.
Delightful fragrances of freshly cut herbs, ripe green tomatoes, vibrant peppers, crisp almonds, and the invigorating essence of green grass. This remarkable blend of flavors harmoniously complements a variety of dishes, including refreshing green salads and chilled appetizers. It also enhances the taste of succulent red meats, while offering endless possibilities for crafting extraordinary marinades.
Producers Are Important
We greatly value traveling to visit the passionate producers behind the oil. They walk us through their olive groves, sharing the history of their company and passion for olive oil; we observe their meticulous production methods from harvest to mill; and of course, we sample their freshly-crushed olive oil as it pours out of the tap, partaking in the pleasure of tasting the final result of their hard work.
