Ellora Farms Extra Virgin Olive Oil is of the highest quality which meets the stringent requirements while maintaining a focus on environmental consciousness and tradition. The olive oil is produced at source in the Kolymvari region of Crete, in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, where the olives go beyond a simple agricultural product to being a key ingredient in the life, culture and cuisine of the region. It is here that the world's oldest living olive tree of Vouves, estimated to be more than 3000 years old and still producing the prized olives, marks the history and emphasizes the importance of the olive oil industry for local farmers.
With each passing year, perfect climate and soil conditions, in the Island of Crete, allow the olive trees to bear precious olive fruit. The olive fruit is harvested by hand and is sent directly to state of the art milling and processing facilities for immediate cold pressing and bottling. Low temperatures are applied to preserve the traditional flavor and quality of the olive oil.
This olive oil has a peppery flavor and the fruitiness of a true Cretan Extra Virgin Olive Oil of which the origin and authenticity is certified by the EU standards. Taste the difference and trace the history of single origin, single region, and ethically produced olive oil.
