Sitia PDO Extra Virgin Olive Oils
Elevating culinary experiences with authentic extra virgin olive oil from the Sitia region of Crete in Greece. We pride ourselves on offering the finest olive oils - embodied with rich heritage and vibrant flavors.

Acidity - What's The Difference?
For olive oil to be considered extra virgin, it must have a free acidity level of 0.8% or less. This acidity is expressed as a percentage of oleic acid, a type of fatty acid naturally present in olive oil. The lower the acidity, the higher the quality of the oil. Sitia PDO is more versatile and can be used for cooking, while Sitia PDO 0.3 is ideal for dressings and dips.
