Exceptional olive oil begins in the grove — in the soil, the climate, and the hands that care for each tree.
In the mountain village of Logkanikos, Greece, our family-owned has cared for the same olive grove for generations. Ygeia is made from 100% Athinolia olives, harvested early and cold-pressed within hours to preserve their freshness, aroma, and distinctive character. Our early‑harvest Athinolia contains 354 mg/kg of polyphenols.

More Than Olive Oil — A Difference You Can Taste
What Is Athinolia?
Athinolia is a traditional olive variety native to southern Greece and particularly associated with Laconia. It is known for producing aromatic extra virgin olive oils with vibrant fruit character, freshness, balance, and a naturally peppery finish.
Expect aromas of fresh-cut grass, green herbs, and olive leaf, followed by smooth fruitiness and a distinctive peppery finish that reflects the character of Athinolia olives grown in the foothills of the Taygetos Mountains.
A Mountain‑Grown Olive Oil
Nestled in the foothills of the Taygetos Mountains in the Peloponnese, our family grove benefits from a unique high‑elevation climate that allows Athinolia olives to ripen slowly, developing concentrated flavor and natural freshness. Cold‑pressed within hours of harvest, they retain their naturally low acidity and produce an oil with vibrant aroma, elegant balance, and Ygeia’s signature peppery finish.
Why is Ygeia olive oil different?
Ygeia is a single-estate Greek extra virgin olive oil made exclusively from Athinolia olives grown in Logkanikos, Greece. It is harvested early, cold-pressed within hours, unfiltered, and never blended. Our most recent early-harvest lot tested at 354 mg/kg of polyphenols.
