Kalamata Olives
The Kalamata olive is one of Greece’s most iconic varieties, originally cultivated in the Kalamata region and now grown throughout the country. Today, it stands as the second most important olive variety produced in Greece. Recognizable by its elegant oblong shape and deep purple hue that darkens to an almost black color as it ripens, the Kalamata olive is prized for its rich, full-bodied flavor and firm, meaty texture. Its distinctive taste makes it a staple of Mediterranean cuisine.
Halkidiki Olives
Halkidiki olives are a uniquely Greek green olive variety, renowned for their large size and elongated shape. Celebrated for their fresh, vibrant “green” taste, these olives offer a crisp bite and a clean, mildly tangy flavor profile. Their firm texture and generous size make Halkidiki olives ideal for marinating and especially well-suited for stuffing with a variety of gourmet fillings.
