MILESTONE CRÈME DE LA CRÈME OLIVE OIL

MILESTONE Rediscovering Precious Values
You need human intervention to achieve the authentic, the extraordinary! That's why we prefer the traditional milling process that allows us to observe the fruit at all stages of production. MILESTONE is made entirely by hand, from the gathering of the fruit, to the milling using granite millstones, and then the collection of the cream of the unripe olive oil.  
MILESTONE reflects our need to slow down life’s pace, to be in harmony with nature, to preserve tradition, to create rare and unique products through handcraftsmanship and artisanal processing. This can only be achieved by adopting slow food processing practices. Everything is done with accountability, conscious respect for the nature and the enjoyment of returning to our culinary traditions. MILESTONE goes back to rediscover these precious values.


MILESTONE Artistic Creativity
The bottle of MILESTONE, a re-creation of an authentic old millstone, is lovingly made by experienced potters, working to create this traditional stoneware clay, which meets today's health and safety standards. The opacity of the bottle protects its content from sunlight, while its insulating properties help to protect it from the humidity and changes in temperature. Every stage of the process is done by hand, thus making every MILESTONE bottle unique, using materials that are recyclable and environmentally friendly.
MILESTONE CRÈME DE LA CRÈME
MILESTONE's high antioxidant quality, attributed to its high content of polyphenols, provides a strong shield against various types of cancer, cardiovascular diseases and the aging of cells, when consumed in the recommended manner.
MILESTONE should be treated gently - as required by its young unripe fruit. Best added to your food raw so that the antioxidant qualities are preserved.
Drizzle MILESTONE over fresh or toasted bread and add it to your salad together with a few drops of lemon juice and set your palate ablaze with its piquant taste. MILESTONE combines perfectly with meat, fish and white and yellow cheeses.
“Milestone has a vivid grass green color and a thick opaque aspect. The nose is intense and aromatic with herbal notes of fresh cut grass, basil and artichokes. It has a rich and full bodied palate with a long aftertaste and a fresh herbal finish that leaves you wanting for more.”

The Special Taste and Flavour of Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil From Greece’s Finest Olive Farms

Olive oil, as anyone knows is available in different grades such as virgin olive oil and extra virgin olive oil also known as EVOO. Then there is the virgin grade and another known as pure olive or refined olive oil. The best of the pack is undoubtedly EVOO or extra virgin oil since it has low acidity (0.21), is produced from selected olives sourced from a single olive farm and cold pressed to preserve the natural taste, aroma and flavor.
