Velikas Finest, our second house brand, is also produced by family and friends and comes from the Messinia region, about 20 km west of Kalamata. Natural and unfiltered (naturally cloudy), it contains everything that the olive has to offer. It has a slightly milder taste than our own production Mandinia, has a very low acidity of <0.3% and impresses with its full-bodied aroma. Of course, Velikas Finest is obtained directly from their own olives and exclusively with mechanical processes through cold pressing. We do not use any pesticides or herbicides and only use natural or organic fertilizers. It is bottled unfiltered, so it is naturally cloudy and contains all the unbridled power of the olive. Please shake before each use, as the valuable suspended matter will settle.
Velikas Finest was awarded the SILVER medal at the International Olive Oil Competition in London (IOOC) in May 2022.
