AKRA MOREA OLIVE OIL

If you are looking for exceptionally healthy oil, choose an EVOO that has been harvested while the olive is unripe. The maximal chlorophyll prominent in unripe olives makes the early harvested oil ​(Agoureleo in Greek) verdant and richer in healthy bioactive molecules like Oleocanthal and Oleacein. Bitter and spicy sensations are positive attributes for Early Harvest EVOOs, because they —and the cough that comes after swallowing the product— indicate the existence of polyphenols, which are extremely healthy natural antioxidants with anti-inflammatory compounds. In fact, the higher the burning sensation of bittern and spicy notes, the better the indication of phenolic-dominance (even though for baking many prefer the fruitier EVOOs). Our Premium Early Harvest is an especially High Phenolic EVOO, boasting just over 480 polyphenols per 20 grams of olive oil. It is well documented by the EFSA that the minimum amount of polyphenolic content must exceed 250 polyphenols per 20gr of product

A Premium pure organic EVOO that has been harvested in ways that are both sustainable to the environment as well as fully nurturing to the consumer has much greater value than an olive oil that has been produced without any restrictions on cultivation, extraction and storage. At AKRA MOREA© we are proud to have been acknowledged by the D.I.O. (Δ.Η.Ω.) which is the Organic Products Control & Certification Organization in Greece, having been certified across our organic range, thus authorizing leading excellence. This Premium Organic EVOO reveals complex aromas from various fruits and vegetables. The fruity intensity is similar to the intensity of the bitterness and the spiciness, revealing elegance making the EVOO balanced. Generally, a balanced EVOO is considered to be the best for the making of sauces, using as dressing or creating lighter dishes. This is because its flavour is gentler and more delicate whilst not covering the potency of other ingredients that are used
