Laconiko, the award-winning producer of single-origin, high phenolic extra virgin olive oils, proudly announces the arrival of its new harvest Koroneiki Estate Olive Oils, freshly pressed from the southern coastline of Lakonia, Greece. This highly anticipated release marks the culmination of a year of careful cultivation, precise harvest timing, and uncompromising attention to detail.
"Green harvested olive fruit tells a story of our land," shares Diamantis Pierrakos, Producer and Co-Owner of Laconiko. "The weather conditions created a challenging harvest year for much of Greece, but we never compromise on quality. We pick at the exact right moment, crush immediately, and obsess over quality so what ends up on your table is something we can be truly proud of."
Produced from early-harvested green Koroneiki olives and first cold-pressed within hours of picking, this year's olive oil is vibrant, fresh, and well-balanced. Pierrakos notes, "This year's harvest has delicious green fruit notes and is well-balanced, which is a perfect complement for everyday cooking, dressings, marinades, and finishing. These are truly the best every day and finishing olive oils. This is also the olive oil Laconiko was recognized for in the prestigious Athena International olive oil competition. Voted 'The Best of Show Award' for producing the 'Best Olive Oil from Greece' and 'Best Koroneiki Internationally.'"
The new harvest is available for purchase at laconiko.com, at Laconiko's Manassas, VA showroom, and through select specialty retailers nationwide. Naturally high in polyphenols and oleocanthal, Laconiko olive oil delivers robust flavor alongside antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, making it as nutritious as it is delicious.
Laconiko Estate Olive Oil is priced at $29.95 per 500 ml bottle, with tasting notes of fresh green fruit aroma, freshly cut grass, and ripe banana, finishing with a pleasant peppery note indicative of its high polyphenol concentration. Laconiko Olio Nuovo is priced at $39.95 per 500 ml bottle, offering bold green fruit aroma from olives harvested during the first week of the Koroneiki harvest, with notes of fresh cut greens, green tomato, and arugula, and a persistent peppery finish ideal for finishing dishes.
In addition to the new harvest, Laconiko's indoor and outdoor spaces are available for private events, corporate gatherings, and celebrations. The company also hosts public events; more information can be found at their events page. This release underscores Laconiko's dedication to producing high-quality olive oils that honor family tradition while meeting modern standards of excellence.
