The exceptional virgin olive oil is today recommended by modern medicine due to its valuable components that provide health, well-being, and longevity. In our Monastery, there is a modern certified olive mill, which is the continuation of the old stone-built olive mill. The ancient olive grove comprises 4000 trees, some of which are up to 800 years old. There, we find many self-rooted olive trees, thousands of wild olive tree roots, and unique varieties. Additionally, there are modern olive groves with a further 4000 olive trees. In the Monastery’s olive grove, modern and innovative production processes are used, such as composting all the residues of the olive mill, as no chemical fertilizers are used in the Monastery.
The holy great monastery of vatopedi, located on mount athos, greece, is renowned for its centuries-old tradition in olive oil production. The monastery cultivates its olive groves with ecological practices, avoiding chemical fertilizers and utilizing composting methods to ensure sustainability. The olives are harvested by hand and processed exclusively in the monastery’s certified olive mill, which combines traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. This ensures the preservation of the oil’s natural fruity aromas, rich taste, and slightly spicy aftertaste.
The monastery’s extra virgin olive oil is produced through cold mechanical extraction methods, maintaining its exceptional purity and nutritional value. Each bottle reflects the spiritual heritage and dedication to quality that defines monastic life. Cherished by consumers worldwide, this olive oil is a true representation of the essence of mount athos.
