The Collection

Pure. Powerful. Cretan.

A limited-edition, certified-organic pressing from the first early harvest of select Koroneiki olives in the sun-drenched Messara Valley. Every step — picking, pressing, bottling — is carried out entirely by hand by the Kidonakis family. Cold-extracted below 27°C to lock in its complex fruity aroma, vibrant golden-green colour, and a polyphenol content high enough to carry the official EU Health Claim. Our signature black-glass bottle — a gift in itself.

Why Oleum Crete Is Different

Science and tradition in equal measure. Every bottle is a result of obsessive attention to purity.

01
01

Acidity Below 0.3%

Global regulations allow up to 0.8%. Oleum Crete is consistently under 0.3% — achieved through hand-picking at optimal maturity and cold-pressing within hours of harvest.

02
02

800+ mg/kg Polyphenols

Oleocanthal and Oleacein concentrations far above the average EVOO — powerful natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatories preserved through rapid cold-extraction.

Beyond the Table

The olive's oldest ritual

Long before it reached the table, Cretan olive oil was a beauty rite, pressed for the skin, the hair, the hands. The same single-estate oil, rich in vitamin E and polyphenols, that has softened skin since antiquity.
