ELIDIA Cuvée is a supreme quality blend, an early harvest extra virgin olive oil from the region of Chania in Western Crete. It is produced from a combination of Tsounati and Koroneiki cultivar olive fruits milled together. Tsounati is the endemic gem of Western Crete, while Koroneiki is the queen of the Greek olive fruit cultivars. The strong spicy and bitter elements of Tsounati are smoothened by the delicate balance of Koroneiki, offering a genuine representative of the renowned Cretan Olive Grove.
