• Meet the producers

  This oil is like family to us. It comes from our dear friend Maria Amargiotaki's land, where she and her husband Dimitris look after groves they've been regenerating through no-tilling, re-wilding, and adding in more biodiversity.
  
  We’ve used the Provenance® transparency platform so you can see the journey of our olive oil from the farm to your table...

• Taste & pair

  Tastes like...
  Fresh-cut grass on the nose, then flavours of banana and tomato leaf with an avocado bit coming through. There’s a slightly peppery finish that's a sign it's rich in Oleocanthal (anti-inflammatory, antioxidant 'superfood' compound).
  
  Pairs with...
  It's easier to count the ways we wouldn't use this oil. It's our go-to for everything. It's gorgeous on carbs, like rice and potatoes. In the winter, we're using it on roasted veg and beans. In the summer, it's all about tomato salads and pizzas. It's also glorious in a martini and THE BEST THING EVER on ice cream.
