What do we think about olive oil sommelier courses? . This has come up quite a few times…and we say…That is a different level of knowledge versus masters and bachelors degrees in food safety and science and academic research and food industry (professional) experience. We think.

“I feel like the person actually cares about me when they gift me a niche olive oil.” Agree, olive oil as a gift seems to be normalizing.

Does it matter to you if the founders of an olive oil business do not own any olive groves (and have never owned) ?.

Overheard next to someone speaking about how “Greeks are illogical because their motto is life or death.” . …on the surface without understanding Greece’s rich history, fine. This was under particular circumstances. We just decide to not forget and keep traditions.
If you need any hardcore motivation, we have some wisdom from our Maniot ancestors. Written in Ancient Greek, the flag says:.With your shield or on it. Victory or Death.

We just walked past this massive (old) olive tree and it got us thinking: we’re simply against marketing budgets, not better oils. The source was there decades ago, and it will still be there after we leave 🫒

When everyone has made it and ready to jump ship from AI, we will be here ready to help lean into your (olive) farmer era.

We would like to thank everyone who has supported us from the beginning. It has been an uphill battle. We got our first sale less than a year ago (🎉) and we’ve been fighting against random things like instagram blocking our celebratory post as “against community guidelines”…

“0g sugar” “100% pure” “100% natural” “100% UV blocking” “high polyphenol” . …Same.

We used to print out Google maps directions just like we used to buy olive oil that didn’t have coordinates.

Not every brand is a white label. Some brands have history behind them. đź‘‹.

We know it's really hard to understand how to buy the right olive oil. So we just simply showed our family, faces, trees and supply chain (check out YouTube). If there's more you all want to see let us know. We value transparency and a craft that can't really be googled.
