Petrina Lakonias
|
(Olive Oil / Πέτρινα Λακωνίας / Petrina, Greece)
This extra virgin olive oil is obtained from Koroneiki olives that grow in the village of Petrina in the Laconia prefecture. This beautiful village has the perfect weather conditions for cultivating olive trees – the sunny weather helps the town's olive trees produce around 300 tons of extra virgin olive oil each year. Petrina Lakonias' color is yellowish-green, depending on how ripe the olives are when harvested. The flavor is slightly bitter, and it is usually described as having a sweet flavour and a hint of sourness that decreases as the oil ages. Its fruity smell is most intense when the oil is fresh. |
