Grown for over 50 years on the mineral-rich slopes of Mount Psiloritis in Messara, Crete, Volakas Koroneiki is a single-varietal extra virgin olive oil shaped by intense sun, dry winds, and dramatic temperature swings — conditions that concentrate flavor and drive the tree’s yield naturally low in exchange for exceptional fruit quality.
Cold-extracted using purely mechanical methods within hours of harvest, this oil opens with fresh green aromas of wild herbs and olive grove vegetation. On the palate, expect a confident bitterness and a lively, peppery finish — signature traits of the Koroneiki cultivar and a marker of its naturally high polyphenol content. The result is a full-bodied, structured oil with a radiant golden hue, silky texture, and real persistence on the finish.
Volakas is one of the few olive oils in the world entitled to a certified health claim under EU Regulation 432/2012, thanks to its exceptionally high phenolic content.
Bottled in premium black matte glass and produced in a single limited run of 300 bottles per harvest, this is an olive oil for those who want authenticity, character, and a genuine sense of place in every pour. Best enjoyed raw — finishing dishes, dressing vegetables, or simply with good bread.
