Mitira Lesvos Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil - 250ml

Mitira olive oil is produced by the Karali family on the artistic and historical island of Lesvos, birthplace of the ancient poet Sappho. Their organically cultivated olive groves are planted with the rare local varieties of Kolovi and Adramitiani which are harvested young, producing a lower yield of oil but a higher quality. Growing in rich limestone soils, these produce an exceptionally balanced and mild olive oil with strong herbacious aromas. It has a bright, golden colour, due to its low chlorophyll content, and a pleasingly light texture.
