Where to Buy Authentic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

So, you’ve heard about the health benefits, culinary value, and clean taste of Cretan extra virgin olive oil. But what about the convenience of purchase? Do they deliver straight to your doorstep? And, most importantly, how do you trust you’ve chosen authentic Cretan olive oil?

In view of all your worries, we have developed a solution that makes Patima Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), olives, herbs, and honey all the more accessible to you. But first, let’s find out more about the recognition and purchase of authentic extra virgin olive oil.


How Do I Recognize Good Olive Oil?

By now, you have learned to doubt what your local supermarkets offer as olive oil. You might be under the impression that authentic EVOO, produced in Crete, is hard to spot. But there is a way to recognize quality on the Internet.

Look for reputable producers with a PDO certification that vouches for the EVOO standard. Details such as region of production, year of harvest, or identification of the producer are good indicators, while reliable producers are always transparent about their levels of acidity and olive variety.

And with us, you are getting the real deal. A cold-pressed blend of hand-picked Tsounati and Koroneiki olives with acidity that never surpasses the range of 0.5% and 0.6%. From an authentic PDO-produced bottle, a natural infusion of antioxidants and polyphenols, to that mouthwatering dressing at the bottom of your salad bowl – the one that gets you all the compliments.


Do I Have Patima EVOO Delivered All the Way Across Europe?

Yes, we do DHL shipping, even to your small town. Within 7–8 days, you get your EVOO delivered straight to your address.

Whereas most travelers get trapped in the usual dilemma of whether their last-minute olive oil purchase in Crete was any good, with a couple of clicks, you can have an informed purchase of a certified product that abounds in great reviews. And one that lasts all year long. While a trip to Crete results in a quality gift, a smart buying decision from your sofa can sustain a healthy Mediterranean diet for you and your family.

Two of our 5-liter tin containers will last you months. And with purchases of over 120 euros, you get free shipping.

You can customize your purchase by adding some of our other products to your cart: Mama Pelagia Cretan honey, a range of olives, or wild herbs, which will add depth to your every meal.


Is the Packaging Secure?

As a family of farmers who have been producing and selling olive oil with care and dedication for ages, we understand the necessity for responsibly-crafted packaging. No leakage, no sun damage.

Our olive oil will arrive at your doorstep tightly sealed in opaque, protective packaging (tin or dark glass containers) that prevents sun exposure and preserves every bit of its quality.


Why Patima EVOO?

Down in sunny Crete, where our olive groves feast on the fertile soil of the Chania ecosystem in the calm envelop of the White Mountains and freshwater Lake Kournas, we, the Alexakis family, have united modern science with ancestral craft to produce authentic Cretan olive oil.

Patima EVOO is more than a guarantee of quality. It’s an experience that elevates your senses and brings the vibrant Mediterranean cuisine all the way to your kitchen.
