THE OLIVE VARIETY
WHAT IS KORONEIKI OLIVE OIL?
Koroneiki is a Greek olive variety closely associated with Crete. Extra virgin olive oil produced from Koroneiki olives can show green-fruit and herbaceous aromas, natural bitterness and a peppery finish.
Variety is only part of the story. Fruit condition, harvest timing, extraction, storage and packaging also shape the final oil. PLOUMI combines a clearly declared 100% Koroneiki origin with a connected grove-to-bottle production system.
