Gift options "XXL format" in combination with olive oil

One of our first products, the untreated, black Kalamon olives with pits, ripen throughout the year under constant sun exposure near Kalamata and are hand-harvested in December with our help.

The secret of our very popular olives is that we prepare them ourselves in a four-month process, including multiple changes of water. Natural de-bittering takes place with salt water. After four months, the unblackened, natural olives are bottled directly by us as the manufacturer and are available for sale. The fact that they are free of additives, flavorings, colorings and preservatives is reflected in their unique taste. Their tender and firm flesh, which easily separates from the pit, has a very special taste. See for yourself!

We not only use our Aristos olive oil as a high-quality cooking oil, but also extract our natural olive oil soap from it, which contains no other ingredients and is completely free of palm oil. It is made using the cold method and, after at least eight weeks of ripening, is sent directly to us from Greece, where it is packaged by hand and without plastic. With the pleasant inherent smell of olive oil, it is perfect as a gentle daily body hygiene product. Since the soap is not only vegan, but also completely free of artificial aromas (preservatives and perfumes), it can be used on dry and sensitive skin, as well as on impure skin. It also has a nourishing effect when washing hair and removing make-up, removing make-up residues and strengthening the hair.

On a protected south-facing slope in the mountains of Messenia, our Koroneiki trees have been growing for years, overlooking the city of Kalamata. From morning to evening, they are warmed by the sun and nourished by the valuable red earth of the soil, until we traditionally harvest them in December with sticks and rakes to produce our high-quality, single-variety olive oil. After it has been bottled and each bottle has been individually labeled and checked by us, the natural and unfiltered cloudy oil goes directly to the weekly market or to the webshop – directly from us as producers from Greece.

Aristos olive oil can be used in both cold and warm cuisine, for frying as well as for cooking. Its pure and natural taste is particularly good as part of a salad dressing. Our oil also adds the final taste to Mediterranean antipasti or a delicious pesto.

Our sideritis scardica, as Greek mountain tea is often called in technical jargon, comes from organically certified cultivation. The region of the producer community from which we obtain the mountain tea directly from Greece is located near Olympus. Many Greece enthusiasts associate Olympus with the 12 gods of Olympus. Important in this context are the facts that the tea grows on rocky areas at an altitude of over 1,000 meters. Sufficient sun, wind and the rocky soil are all that the ironwort needs to grow to its full strength. In Greece, mountain tea is considered a "folk remedy" and is gladly drunk at any time of day and for any occasion.
