Ziro Organic Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil with Packaging 500ml

Organic Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil

This exceptional extra virgin olive oil, boasting low acidity, is crafted from organically grown olives harvested early in the season. Its delightful flavour profile evokes notes of flowers, tomato leaves, and green almond, offering a perfect balance of fruity and spicy notes that pair beautifully with pasta, grilled meats, and salads.

The unique conical bottle echoes the shape of the traditional oil containers used by Cretan families for generations. The handcrafted wooden cap, adorned with an image of the Paleokastro disk, pays homage to this ancient artifact, considered by some to be the first computer. Dating back to the 19th century BC, the Minoan disk served as a sundial, a latitude calculator, and even predicted solar and lunar eclipses.

Ziro’s olive oil production is a legacy passed down through generations, constantly evolving with the latest scientific advancements and technological innovations. Their olive groves flourish within the renowned Sitia Geopark of eastern Crete, nestled at an altitude of 600 meters. This unique location boasts a special microclimate and has received the coveted Protected Designation of Origin: Sitia Lasithi of Crete.
