Description
Akra Morea (Agoureleo in Greek) premium first-harvest extra virgin olive oil is an exceptional choice for those seeking an oil with remarkable health benefits. Harvested from olives that are still green, this oil is particularly rich in chlorophyll and bioactive molecules such as oleocanthal and oleacein, known for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
The bitter and spicy notes of this oil, as well as the sensation of burning after ingestion, are indicators of its high polyphenol content. In fact, our first-harvest olive oil contains over 480 mg of polyphenols per 20 g of oil, well above the threshold recommended by EFSA (250 mg). This oil is distinguished by its high concentration of phenolic compounds, making it an extremely healthy product, far superior to the majority of extra virgin olive oils available on the market.
Harvested between early September and October 15th, the olives are carefully filtered to eliminate any residue, guaranteeing a limpid, pure texture. This oil is ideal for palates that appreciate intense flavors, and is a wonderful finishing touch to vegetable, legume or meat dishes.
Let yourself be seduced by Akra Morea’s Premium Early Harvest EVOO, a powerful olive oil full of character, perfect for enhancing your dishes in a healthy and tasty way.
