Olive Oil 1L from Crete, Greece "NIKOLAOS" – Premium Quality, Extra Virgin, Cold-Pressed, Rich in Polyphenols, Low Acidity. New Harvest: Dec. 2024 – Feb. 2025. Best Before: Nov 2026 – Jan 2027

Having been to Crete and tasted their olive oil, I was delighted to find this NIKOLAOS oil on Amazon. Let's face it, all olive oil is expensive these days, but the price for this exceptional olive oil is good value of your hard earned cash. It has a full rich flavour which is pungent and peppery and is a lovely dark green in colour, as a decent olive oil should be. So versatile, can be used for cooking, salads, dressings, marinades, bread making the list is endless! TIP: I decant this from the tin into a bottle for ease of use. However, should you choose to do the same, it MUST be decanted into a dark green bottle and kept in a cupboard to protect it from the light. Light causes photo-oxidation and degrades the oil's quality of its fabulous flavor, and nutritional properties. (The antioxidants in olive oil do provide health benefits, but will be lost due to depletion of oxidation) Seriously you will not be disappointed or find better!

I am a great lover of olive oil, and anyone who knows anything at all about olives will know that the best to be had is from Crete. This oil did not dissapoint, it is of superb quality, I would even say that this oil from family production is simply the best I have ever tasted. Yes you can taste the sunshine that goes into growing this beautiful & sacred crop. Yes it is pungent & peppery which is a true sign of quality & yes it is thick with olive pulp from first cold pressing & yes you can taste the love that goes into this very artisanal production. I use it in all my cooking & salads and will even drink it neat for it's health giving properties. Great value too as a little goes a long way. I will order from Nikolaos Family again as simply the best olive oil money can buy. Thank you for all your hard work & love that goes into producing this truly superior produce. Anyone who thinks different should simply buy cheaper inferior & blended oils from Spain or Italy. For all the other, absolute oil lovers out there, buy this with confidence & enjoy the best.

I thought I had discovered the best a year ago until I purchased this superb perfect beautiful tasting Olive Oil. 🤤 It's NOT as bitter as a couple of comments have mentioned. It's just right & the colour is so beautiful like it should be for a high quality genuine Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I used it in a lot of my cooking & even pour some over my joints of meat like a leg of lamb & especially a whole chicken as they turn out so tender like I've never been able to do as good before! It's a very good price which I think is too cheap for such a high quality Oil. Just being very honest. I will buy this if it does go up in price as it's the best!! It tastes fantastic. It's brilliant to cook with. It smells gorgeous. Well packaged. It looks beautiful in colour. Don't miss out on the best as this is. You will buy more for sure! 😉 🤤Mwah🤌🏼

The olive oil is slightly cloudy with a slightly fruity aroma, which are good signs. I find the olive oil slightly bitter, but NOT rancid, which indicates a high polyphenol content which is an indicator of good quality olive oil with health benefits. This slight acidity is comparable to alicin in a fresh clove of garlic and is not noticeable when added to food. The slight acidic taste is reduced by adding a little sea-salt. A label on the tin gives date of pressing and a Best Before date of almost 1 year. This is definitely a much better quality olive oil with more flavour than supermarket own-brand oil that I had been using. I add a tablespoon of olive oil as a supplement to my morning Herbalife shake. The olive oil adds medicinal benefit and adds texture and slight thickening to my shake. I also cook with the olive oil which adds flavour, and enjoy the flavour when used a dip for bread. At time of purchase it cost £12/litre which is more than I used to pay for supermarket olive oil. However, I bought this olive oil principally because of its nutritional, medicinal, and health benefits and therefore regard the price as slighty expensive but acceptable. It is impossible to put a price on good health. Research has clearly shown that a Mediterranean diet is particularly healthy because of the daily use of olive oil. I regard this purchase as an investment in maintaining my good health in my mid-70s.

If you like quality virgin olive oil this is a great one, and a must have for your cooking and salads. Great quality and taste and from a good Greek region.

Its the best oil to cook with its healthy and the food tastes wonderfull as its cold pressed it keeps all its natural vitamins and minerals witch makes it healthy

This is a really good Cretan olive oil. The colour is vibrant but it is the taste that wins one over. Pleasantly fruity and with a well-defined "olive" taste, there is also a sweetness combined, rather miraculously, with a delightful and lively pepperiness. This makes it a stunning accompaniment with tomatoes - just slice the toms and liberally pour this beautiful olive oil. It is also superb with bread, perhaps mixing it with a good modena vinegar, if you like this sort of thing. I don't really, though I get the point. Instead, I lightly toast, or oven-heat, some focaccia then dip it into this fabulous oil. Needless to say, it is in fact good with anything needing olive oil.

Great oil good balanced flavour Not the strongest flavoured oil I've had but it is the only oil I use from salads to baking bread and frying. I'm very happy with it.

Cette huile d'olive est conditionnée dans une belle bouteille en verre, elle est très bonne avec un bon gout fruité, elle parfume agréablement les plats. Elle apporte une saveur particulière aux légumes frits, aux salades j'adore ! Pour les adultes ce sera un régal mais pour les plus petits il faudra un temps d’adaptation. Un petit filet d'huile sur une salade toute simple composée de tomates, feta, verdure, croutons et c'est un délice. Une huile à consommer aussi bien pour sa saveur que pour ses bienfaits pour la santé. Je recommande sans hésitation !

Bonne huile, merci

Très bonne qualité, saveur délicieuse . Τέλειο !

Idéale pour les salades et aussi pour la cuisson Très bonne huile parmi celles déjà utilisées. Comparaison est faite surtout avec principalement les crétoises qui sont de loin pour moi les meilleurs.

Delighted with this excellent olive oil. It certainly has got a peppery kick to it. Love the taste. Looking forward to using it in salads, and cooking. Only received it today, and found it to be packed very well. I have already convinced a few people to try it.
