What makes our greek extra virgin olive oil unique
Before there were “superfoods”, there was olive oil and its origin stems from Greece. Four thousand years later, olive oil is still celebrated for its medicinal properties. Our 100% Koroneiki GEVOO produces increased levels of specific phenolic ingredients (oleocanthal and oleacein). With Fancy Peasant GEVOO, you get a high level of these bioactive polyphenols which are antiangiogenic, anti-inflammatory, and have unique anticancer properties.
The everything GEVOO replaces your coconut oil, avocado oil, ghee, pumpkin seed oil, walnut oil, grape seed oil, peanut oil, sesame oil, hemp seed oil, flaxseed oil, sunflower seed oil, canola oil, vegetable oil… and makes space in your pantry.
The beauty of our GEVOO is that it can be used on truly every style dish - be it making an egg scramble, salad dressing, baked fish, soups, and beyond. See our recipe library, or checkout our 5 Fancy Peasant favorites for inspiration.
Our oil comes from a single-estate olive grove in Greece, located in Lechania, a village in the West Peloponnese region. The grove lies close to the Ionian Sea at a certain height above sea level that provides a unique microclimate for premium quality extra virgin olive oil.
