A matter of good taste!
This is our pride product: a typical, Koroneiki variety Cretan olive oil of great taste and superb quality characteristics. We believe that the oil from this very area is a unique expression of the terroir; a distinctive microclimate, a hot, dry area during the day and cold at night, it provides the perfect stressful climate in which olive trees are known to thrive.
The taste
The oil is a deep golden-green hue with an expansive nose redolent of fresh cut grass and artichokes. The flavors run deep with the intense peppery and pungent finish that is expected of such youthful and fresh oil. Break out the grilled, rustic toast or dress the simplest of pastas with just oil, fresh garlic, and tomatoes and cheese. This oil's flavor will stand up to the heartiest of dishes!
The bold aromas of fresh cut grass and artichoke are all in balance. The taste has a harmony of the pleasant "green" flavors of herbs and almonds with a lingering sweet finish and a pleasant "peppery" punch that announces its freshness. Biolicreta compliments simple fish, poultry and vegetable dishes, livens up a risotto with wild mushrooms or polenta with braised greens, or makes a bold fruity dressing for arugula or spinach salads...be inspired!
