Key Features

  • Single varietal Manaki olive oil from certified organic groves
  • Cold-extracted within hours of harvest to preserve natural polyphenols
  • Soft, balanced flavor profile with a mild aftertaste
  • Versatile for both cooking at moderate heat and finishing dishes
  • Presented in a distinctive 300ml Aryballos-inspired vessel
  • Suitable for Mediterranean diet principles and plant-based cuisine
  • No additives, blending, or chemical processing

Origin & Craftsmanship

The Manaki olive variety thrives in specific microclimates, producing fruit with naturally higher nutritional density. Each olive is picked by hand at optimal ripeness, then transported immediately to the press. Cold extraction occurs below 27°C, ensuring the oil retains its inherent vitamins, antioxidants, and characteristic aroma compounds.

The Special Edition Aryballos bottle references ancient Greek oil vessels, combining historical design inspiration with modern food preservation standards. The 300ml format offers convenient portion control while maintaining freshness between uses.

Suggested Uses: Drizzle over toasted bread, whisk into vinaigrettes, finish grilled fish or poultry, dress pasta and roasted vegetables, or use as a base for Mediterranean sauces.

Storage: Keep in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. Use within 12 months of opening for optimal flavor.

About Corinto

Corinto produces organic single estate olive oils that honor traditional Greek pressing methods while meeting contemporary quality standards. Each harvest reflects the terroir of the growing region and the expertise of local producers committed to sustainable agriculture.

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes Manaki olives from other varieties?
Manaki olives are known for their balanced oil composition with mild bitterness and moderate fruitiness. They produce oils with a softer flavor profile compared to more robust varieties, making them versatile for everyday cooking and finishing.
Can this oil be used for cooking or only as a finishing oil?
This oil works well for both applications. Its moderate smoke point suits sautéing and roasting at medium temperatures, while its delicate flavor also enhances dishes when added raw as a finishing touch.
What does cold-extracted mean?
Cold extraction keeps processing temperatures below 27°C throughout pressing. This thermal control preserves natural antioxidants, vitamins, and aromatic compounds that can degrade under higher heat, resulting in higher nutritional value and more complex flavor.
How should I store this olive oil after opening?
Store the bottle in a cool, dark cupboard away from heat sources and direct light. Exposure to oxygen, heat, and light gradually reduces quality, so aim to use the oil within 12 months of opening for the best sensory experience.

Experience the gentle character of organic Manaki olives in a format that honors both tradition and daily use.
