They are owned by our family for about 10 years.
Some extra informations
Cultivars
In both plots you can find the regional variety Amfissis and a couple of wild olive trees.
Recent history
Both plots were bought about 10 years ago to our family by some close friends who had recently inherited it. For quite some time until then the trees had be left on their own so it took quite some effort and love to bring them in their current state.
Future plans
Because of the breathtaking view and the small distance from the touristic village of Lefokastro these plots would be ideal for hosting some agrotourism events.
Olive oil characteristics
The extra virgin olive oil that we get with early harvest from this specific plot is very characteristic. It has a medium fruity flavor and medium bitterness and spiciness. At the same time other than the characteristic variety's aromas of green tomato leaves and almond someone can distinguish very fresh aromas of lemon.
