Entelia Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil Koroneiki 16.9 fl oz — Cold-Extracted, Single-Origin Crete

Entelia Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a single-origin, cold-extracted Koroneiki olive oil from Crete, offering a balanced, medium-intensity flavor ideal for everyday cooking.

Harvested from Koroneiki trees in the White Mountains of western Crete, this extra virgin olive oil is pressed soon after picking to lock in fresh aromatics and natural fruitiness. Bottled at 16.9 fl oz, Entelia brings a Mediterranean profile—notes of green apple, fresh grass, artichoke, almond and ripe olive—to dressings, marinades, and finishing plates. The single-origin approach and cold extraction preserve the olive's character so you taste Crete in every drizzle.

How does Entelia Koroneiki olive oil taste and where does that profile work best?

The flavor sits in a medium-intensity range, combining bright green notes with a subtle nutty backbone. It’s versatile enough to enhance raw preparations without overpowering them, yet structured enough to stand up in cooked dishes.

• Primary tasting notes: fresh grass, green apple, and artichoke.
• Secondary nuances: almond, avocado, and a clean olive finish.
• Best uses: salads, vinaigrettes, dipping breads, and as a finishing oil for grilled seafood or roasted vegetables.

Why choose single-origin Koroneiki from Crete over blends?

Single-origin oils capture the terroir of a specific place—soil, climate and local farming practices—so the resulting oil has a more consistent and recognizable personality. Koroneiki is a Mediterranean cultivar prized for its dense fruit and aromatic intensity, and sourcing exclusively from the White Mountains ensures traceable quality.

• Consistent flavor profile from one varietal and region.
• Traceability to Crete’s White Mountains growers.
• Cold extraction shortly after harvest preserves fresh aromas.

Is this oil suitable for cooking at medium temperatures and for finishing dishes?

Yes. With a balanced structure and medium intensity, the oil performs well for medium-heat sautéing, pan-roasting, and for finishing dishes where its aroma can be appreciated. Avoid high-heat deep-frying to retain its delicate flavor compounds.

• Use for sautéing, light roasting, and pan-searing at moderate temperatures.
• Excellent as a finishing oil over soups, pasta, and vegetables.
• Ideal for cold applications like dressings and dips to showcase freshness.

How is the oil produced and what does cold extracted mean?

Cold extraction refers to pressing the olives at controlled temperatures to prevent heat-related degradation of flavor and beneficial compounds. Entelia’s Koroneiki olives are harvested at optimal ripeness and processed quickly to retain aroma, color, and natural fruitiness.

• Harvested from mature Koroneiki trees in western Crete.
• Pressed soon after harvest under low temperatures for quality retention.
• Packaged as extra virgin olive oil to preserve original sensory properties.

Who is this for: Home cooks, professional chefs, and Mediterranean-food lovers who want a dependable, single-origin extra virgin olive oil that brings bright, herbal fruit notes to both raw and cooked dishes. Choose Entelia Koroneiki if you value traceable sourcing, a balanced flavor suitable for everyday use, and an oil that complements salads, seafood, pasta, and simple grilled fare.
