/lambda/ is the ultimate in quality extravirgin olive oil. Referred to by critics as the ‘Rolls Royce’ of olive oils, this product hits the shops this summer.

Produced with the finest Koroneiki olives from the award-winning Kritsa region of Greece, /lambda/ impresses with its superior taste. /lambda/ is created through the unique process of common pressing, where carefully selected olives are hand-picked from the tree and pressed the very same day. This method of pressing ensures that the olives are turned to oil within a maximum of 8-10 hours after picking, giving the oil an unrivalled fresh and intensely fruity taste.

/lambda/ has one of the lowest levels of acidity with a maximum of 0.3° (this year’s production is as low as 0.19°), giving it a tender flavour restricted only to the highest quality extra virgin olive oils. The cold extraction of the oil lends itself to a superior flavour which along with the unfiltered nature of /lambda/ produces a flavoursome olive oil with medium peppery notes.

The unfiltered nature of /lambda/ results in the conservation of a wide range of phytonutrients, including Vitamin E, pigments (chlorophylls and carotenoids), polyphenols and other powerful natural antioxidants.
