Nermin Hanım Zeytinliği
Nermin Gelbal Gökduman left a career in steel and telecoms in 2012 to farm 800 trees at Altınoluk; the estate now covers villages across the Kaz Dağları foothills of the Edremit Gulf, with its own mill, shop and restaurant at Havran since 2019. Unusually for Türkiye, every oil carries a published polyphenol figure and a linked lab report.

The estate
Groves in Altınoluk-Avcılar, Güre, Çamlıbel, Kızılkeçili, İnönü, Büyükdere, Kalabak, Dereli, Murateli and Keremköy. The producer’s own story says 4,200 dönüm (420 ha) and 60,000 century-old trees; its homepage says 50,000 trees and its US site 55,000 on 865 acres, so take the scale as “tens of thousands of old trees” rather than a number. Altitude and soil are not published. Early harvest runs September–October, mature harvest November–December.
Own mill, own fruit only; cold extraction with the paste at about 20 °C, no hot water and no enzymes; nitrogen-blanketed steel tanks at 18 °C; bottled to order. No organic or other certification is published. Lab reports for peroxide, pesticides, chemistry and polyphenols are linked from each product page; the laboratory is not named. Competition results are as the producer lists them; London IOOC 2022 and JOOP 2022 are confirmed on the competitions’ sides, and Canada IOOC 2024 shows a Silver the producer’s list does not.
