A green early-harvest oil from grafted wild and Chondrolia Chalkidikis trees on the Prodromou family’s waterfront estate at Nea Potidaia, pressed at their own plant minutes away — a rare use of the big Chalkidiki table olive for oil. Hand-picked from mid-September. The World Olive Center lists its polyphenols in the 250–499 mg/kg band for the 2019/20 lots without a figure or method, and the producer publishes no tasting note we could find. NYIOOC Gold in 2016 and an EVOOLEUM TOP100 placing the same year are on the producer’s awards page, which stops at 2019–2020; nothing more recent was found, and the site was down when checked. Listed with that disclosure.

Where it's from

Locator map: Nea Potidaia, Chalkidiki, Macedonia, Greece

Chalkidiki is table-olive country — Chondrolia is the green olive on every Greek meze — so an early-harvest oil from it is an outlier by design.
