Arcadian Gold - Arcadia, Peloponnese
The Manaki, Megaritiki and Gaidourelia olives are a rare and ancient trio. Grown together in the wild highlands of Arcadia for over a century, these varieties combine to produce an oil of exceptional character — bright gold in colour, fruity, and smooth with a clean, well-rounded finish.
On the palate it is smooth and mild, with a clean finish and no bitterness. The result is an accessible, versatile everyday oil.
Our grove is in Kato Doliana, in the ancient Thyreatis plain in the shadow of Mount Parnon. In the Iliad, Homer describes the Arcadians as those who dwell "beneath mighty Cyllene" — the great peak of the region, birthplace of the god Pan — and it was their pastoral life, unchanged for generations, that made Arcadia synonimos with innocence and the good life in Western culture for over two thousand years. The word has meant that ever since: ancient, unhurried, at peace with the land. This land has been growing olives, and drawing people to it, for as long as anyone has kept records.
Our trees are over 100 years old — slowly grown, organically cultivated, and harvested entirely by hand. The cold pressing takes place within hours of harvest, preserving every nuance of flavour and aroma the land has to offer.
Light & Fruity
Perfect for everyday use in the kitchen.
Arcadian Gold earns its place in a healthy kitchen through daily use. Like all quality extra virgin olive oils, it is rich in oleic acid — a heart-healthy monounsaturated fat associated with reduced cardiovascular risk, lower LDL cholesterol, and natural anti-inflammatory properties. It also contains Vitamin E and Vitamin K, and the oleocanthal found in good-quality EVOO has been linked to joint and brain health.
The greatest health benefit of a smooth, approachable oil like Arcadian Gold is the simplest one: you'll use it generously, every day — on salads, on bread, in baking — effortlessly replacing saturated fats with one of nature's most nutritionally complete alternatives. That is, at its heart, what the Mediterranean diet is about.
