About this product

Odysea Greek Kalamata PDO Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Odysea Greek Kalamata PDO Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a premium, cold-pressed Greek extra virgin olive oil made from carefully selected Koroneiki olives grown in the renowned Kalamata region of Greece. It offers a balanced flavour profile, excellent nutritional value, and a fair price point for its superior quality.

What Makes This Olive Oil Special?

  • PDO Certified (Protected Designation of Origin) from Kalamata, Greece
