“aξίa”
“aξίa” [ak-sia] /ˈvæl.juː/: is a unique-tasting extra virgin olive oil produced from the “Koroneiki” variety, harvested and pressed within 24 hours resulting in this perfectly balanced, fruity extra virgin olive, that combines the highest nutritional values.
We are harvesting early in the season. The result is to have a primary olive oil (Agoureleon), which includes supremely high content of polyphenols, tocopherols and other types of active natural substances, such as flavonoids (e.g. apigenin), lignans (i.g., pinoresinol, acetoxypinoresinol), other secoiridoids. Ingredients, which possess unique nutritional value and mainly offer a priceless health defense.
“aξίa” taste is moderate spicy and bitter nature olive olive. You may feel its pungency mainly in the throat and a pleasant bitter taste at the base of the tongue. This is due to the high content of health protective polyphenols (mainly due to oleocanthal and oleacein).
The product has been packaged unfiltered, in order to preserve all its beneficial ingredients.
