Halkidiki - the most popular olives, got their name from the area in which they are grown. The taste of this variety of olives is distinguished by a full, spicy, and also moderately bitter taste with notes of fruity aromas and without any hint of oiliness. Since olives are harvested while they are not yet fully ripe, their oval-shaped flesh is very elastic, juicy (meaty) with a small pit. Chalkidiki olives are harvested from mid-September to the end of October. The olives themselves range from a bright yellow-green color to a rich yellow hue (at the time of ripening). Kalamata is one of the most popular types of olives, which we call “olives”. The name of trees of this species comes from the place where they grow. This southern variety is pickled and used as a snack; it is a table olive. Fruits from trees of this species are harvested from November to January. Olives have a thin shell and extremely tender flesh. More oily than Halkidiki, not bitter and with a milder taste. Dark purple almond-shaped olives with a pointed tail.
