Efkrato
Olive oil producer
Efkrato is a family-run producer located in Réthymnon, Crete, specializing in the production of high-quality organic extra virgin olive oil, made exclusively from the ancestral Cretan Tsounati variety. This producer is committed to preserving traditional growing and harvesting methods, while adhering to strict organic farming standards.
This producer practices sustainable agriculture, using techniques that respect the environment. The olives are harvested by hand, one by one, before ripening, to produce an early oil rich in polyphenols. Fertilization is ensured by natural methods, such as the use of organic manure from horses and sheep, which graze in the olive groves.
The oil is extracted within 6.5 hours of harvesting, guaranteeing freshness and preserving aromas. This producer ensures that only the best olives are used, guaranteeing the consistent, exceptional quality of his oil.
This producer has received several international awards for the quality of its olive oil. His commitment to sustainable farming practices and his respect for Cretan traditions make him an outstanding player in the field of olive growing.
We are proud to offer Efkrato products, which reflect the authenticity and richness of the Cretan terroir. Each bottle of Efkrato olive oil is the fruit of passionate work and know-how handed down from generation to generation.
