We are a newly established company created by young people, who chose to remain in our blessed and rich land. Brought up following the advice of our grandparents and faithful to tradition, we decided to continue to do business in the field of production and sale of virgin olive oil, having expertise as our valuable ally. Our guiding principle is, from the moment of harvesting the fruit until the marketing of the final consumer’s product, to achieve a high-quality result.
We have given our olive oil the name Likithos from the ancient vases found in the excavations of the ancient theater of Aegai, located in the eastern Aigialeia. Likithoi, the elegant narrow-bodied ceramic vessels, true jewels of Greek pottery, were used for storing perfume and olive oil. With these, the ancient Greeks made offerings to the gods.
We pay special attention to the critical stages of production such as harvesting, oil extraction, storage and standardization. Our guiding principle is, from the moment of harvesting the fruit until the marketing of the final consumer’s product, to achieve a high-quality result.
For both our virgin olive oil and the virgin olive oil from self-sown wild olive trees, we pay special attention to the season of harvesting the olive fruit. Only healthy fruits are collected and in the case of wild olive trees the fruits are harvested exclusively by hand, a tradition that has its roots in antiquity.
