Oleve Shines Gold at 2025 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition

The NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition is widely regarded as the most prestigious quality contest for extra virgin olive oil. Established by Olive Oil Times, it evaluates submissions through rigorous, blind sensory analysis conducted by a panel of leading international experts

Today, our family cultivates 50,000 olive trees across 12 distinct varieties—including Kolovi (native), Adramiatiani (native), Koroneiki, FS-17, Kalamon, Picual and Arbequina, etc—alongside pomegranates, figs, palms, cypresses and other trees, creating a true refuge for local flora and fauna
