The uniqueness of this product lies in its 100% naturalness (storage technology without the use of preservatives) and the unusually mild taste of olives, which is achieved through preservation in first-pressed olive oil. Amfissa olives (along with Kalamata olives) are recognized as one of the best table olives in the world. They are easily distinguished by their round shape and natural dark purple color, which indicates that the fruits are fully ripe on the tree and were harvested in December. The uniqueness of Amfissa olives is in a slightly sweet nutty flavor, which will certainly appeal even to small gourmets. Olives of this variety are also characterized by a thin skin and juicy, tender flesh. The unique taste of Amfissa olives is achieved thanks to traditional recipes for their preparation - with the addition of olive oil, wine vinegar, spices and a small amount of salt, which also serves as a guarantee of the safety of the final product. Amfissa olives can be served as a snack, including cocktails, or as an exquisite addition to other dishes. Today, Amfissa olives are cultivated in the central regions of mainland Greece, and they owe their name to the Amfissa Valley, where picturesque olive groves and small cozy beaches are located. Nearby are the famous Delphi, where in ancient times the famous Oracle of Delphi lived and apparently enjoyed local olives. The European Union has assigned the Amfissa olives the P.D.O. (Protected Designation of Origin) label "Protected Designation of Origin". For the consumer, such labeling is a guarantee of high quality. It is awarded only to those products whose origin, components and production method are well known.
