The Metropoulos Family

We are a family-owned producer of single-estate Greek extra virgin olive oil from the mountain village of Logkanikos, Laconia. Rooted in generations of tradition, we hand-harvest our olives ourselves, allowing us to know how our olives are grown and maintain careful attention to quality from tree to bottle.

In Logkanikos, olive oil has been part of our family’s life for generations. Long before Ygeia was bottled, each harvest brought our family together to gather the fruit, care for the trees, and preserve a tradition passed from one generation to the next.

Today, we continue that tradition in the same high-elevation groves our family has tended for decades. The rocky soil, cool mountain air, and rugged Taygetos landscape help shape olives with vibrant flavor and naturally high polyphenols—the quiet strength behind our oil’s character and our early-harvest philosophy.

Our grove is real, alive, and part of our family. It is a place we know intimately—a landscape of steep, rocky hillsides where our olive trees have flourished for generations.

If your travels ever bring you to Logkanikos, we'd love to hear from you.

Every Harvest Begins Here

Each autumn, our family harvests Athinolia olives by hand in our grove in Logkanikos. The olives are gathered into sacks and taken for cold extraction within hours, preserving their freshness and naturally occurring polyphenols before being bottled in small batches.

Our Promise

We carry forward the values our family has always believed in: respect for the land, intention in the harvest, and an uncompromising commitment to quality. Every bottle reflects choices made with care—from early harvest and cold extraction to preserving the true character of the Athinolia variety.

Our Goal

Our goal is simple: to share an olive oil that is authentically Greek, beautifully made, and worthy of your table.
