How are they made ?
These infused olive oils are created through a process called natural extraction. This process differs from “aromatised oils” wherein an essential oil is simply added into the olive oil. With our method, we extract the natural properties of herbs, fruits and plants into organic extra virgin olive oil which will sit in oil for up to 5 months, increasing the duration and stability of the aromas and flavours in the oil.
The majority of our plants, herbs and fruits are from our own garden. We chose to produce this way so that we can closely monitor the quality of our aromatic oils from seed to bottle.
We make limited quantities every year, which are packaged in numbered bottles.
How to use them?
Our aromatic oils are the perfect pair to any dish! You can simply spray a few drops of your preferred oil on any sweet or savoury foods.
We recommend that for everyday cooking you use virgin and extra virgin olive oils and that our aromatic oils are used to season a dish, enhancing its flavour.
We offer our aromatic olive oils in the following quantities: 100ml and 250ml.
We recommend that 250ml for professional use, as truly just a drop is enough.
We have created this video below to show you how easy and fun it is to add the aromas and flavours of crete to your foods:

Olive Oil
Organic Cretan Extra Virgin Olive Oil
500ml out of stock
1L out of stock
5L out of stock
Our organic extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is cultivated, harvested and pressed in our region here in Crete. To create this olive oil, we harvest our olives during the month of November and bring them directly to the mill to be pressed into oil.
Due to the disappointing olive harvest this winter, we are unable to offer extra virgin oil this year. We are hopeful for a better yield in November 2024!
Once pressed, our EVOO is stored and packaged in ideal conditions, protecting it from light and high temperatures.
This oil is sold under the Eptastiktos brand.
