Olive Joy: Single-variety olive oils for gourmets

by A. Bergmeier - 2024-02-14

Single variety from Greece – olive oils with origin and character

Not all olive oils are created equal—Olive Joy proves this with its single-variety vintage oils. Instead of relying on standardized blends, Olive Joy brings out the unique flavor diversity of individual olive varieties. All Olive Joy olive oils come from Greece, specifically from the Peloponnese peninsula. Two of the three olive varieties used grow only there and are unique worldwide. A taste test reveals the subtle nuances:

  • Manaki – the mildest oil: Extremely fruity, grassy, slightly nutty, perfect for salads and delicate fish dishes.
  • Koroneiki – the most intense oil: Particularly fruity with a long-lasting pungency and bitterness, perfect for dipping with sea salt or for hearty salads.
  • Athinolia – balanced with a slight pungency: Stronger with a late bitter note, ideal for Mediterranean dishes, pasta sauces, and oven-roasted vegetables.

There is a special story behind the discovery of Athinolia oil. Johannes Hoffmann recounts how his team discovered a breathtaking olive grove on the slopes of the Peloponnese—with a view of the sea, optimal sun conditions, and centuries-old trees. The oil produced there was so unique that they asked the farmer if they could bring it exclusively to Germany. The farmer was so touched that he had tears in his eyes when he learned that his oil would be sold under his name.

Design und Nachhaltigkeit – Olivenöl in einer neuen Verpackung

In addition to the quality of the oil, Olive Joy also focuses on a modern packaging concept. Instead of classic glass bottles, the oils come in stylish tin cans that not only look good but are also practical and environmentally friendly. This type of packaging has several advantages:

  • Complete light protection for maximum freshness
  • 100% recyclable to protect the environment
  • Chic design that can be displayed directly on the table
