Megaron variety:

Megaron olives, grown in Northern Greece, are known for their high-quality extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). This variety produces rich, aromatic oil with a balanced taste, combining fruity, slightly bitter, and peppery notes. Megaron EVOO is prized for its high polyphenol content, making it both flavorful and nutritious.

About Petrousa Farm:

This is the story of two dreamers, Dimos and Stefi, who always wanted to create top-quality olive oil. Back in 2018, they took the leap, diving into a journey filled with learning, traveling, and plenty of hard work. Fast forward a few years, and their dream has turned into reality.

Today, they run a modern farm in Petrousa, Greece, complete with a cutting-edge mill equipped with the latest technology. They’re all about quality over quantity, and their last harvest produced just around four hectoliters of olive oil—meaning only a lucky few hundred people get to taste it each year.

What makes their oil so special? It’s not just the rich flavor or the meticulous process, but the heart and passion poured into every drop. Their story is proof that with dedication and a little bit of dreaming, incredible things can happen—just like their one-of-a-kind olive oil.

ElOlivo review:

This is definitely a special olive oil—not just because of its story (which is pretty awesome), but also because we’re among the lucky few hundred who get to taste it. And not only that, it’s made from the Megaron olive variety. How cool is that? The name alone sounds like a character straight out of a Transformers movie—but let’s not confuse it with Megatron!

Now, let’s talk about what really makes this oil stand out. Its aromas are absolutely incredible and wonderfully complex. The first thing we noticed was a blend of green tomatoes, banana, and apple, followed by hints of fresh green herbs like basil, mint, and parsley. On the palate, it’s just as exciting—bursting with vegetal flavors and notes of lettuce and chicory. It has medium pungency and spiciness, yet everything is perfectly balanced.

And here’s something extra special about it—it boasts a high polyphenol content of over 500 mg/kg, which is seriously impressive! That means it’s not just delicious but also packed with health benefits.

Drizzle it on anything, and this oil will instantly elevate the flavors. Plus, it’s a stable oil, making it great for cooking too.

So, to sum it up: it’s super versatile in the kitchen, made from an incredibly unique olive variety, and has an amazing story behind it. We’d say this is the perfect olive oil—you get everything you could want. Definitely a must-try!
