These Greek black olives bring mellow depth and gentle sweetness.

What makes them special

Thassos sits in the North Aegean, rich with sun and sea breeze.
Local growers hand-pick ripe fruit at the right moment.
Then they cure the olives with care to build balanced flavour.
As a result, you get wrinkled, tender bites with subtle salt.
Moreover, notes of raisin and thyme make every plate sing.

A short tradition story

Olive trees shaped Thassos life since antiquity.
Families tended groves, traded harvests, and kept simple methods.
Therefore, classic techniques still guide today’s producers.
Notably, the island’s style now enjoys EU protection.
That seal safeguards origin, craft, and expected quality.

Taste, texture, and serving ideas

You want flavour that works across dishes.
These olives deliver a soft, dry-cured bite without harsh bitterness.
Furthermore, they pair beautifully with creamy cheeses and herbs.
Use them to lift weekday meals with minimal effort.
