A TRUE LOVE EXPERIENCE

The farming of olive trees and the production of olive oil have been continuous in
the region of Sparta since the times of antiquity until the present day.

The process involves cultivating the land, nurturing the trees, harvesting by hand,
immediate transportation and processing in a certified oil press – with cold pressing –
and finally, the optimal storage of the oil until it reaches our table.

These are all crucial steps that affect the final product.

This ancient tradition has permitted four generations of the Karabellas Family to dedicate their lives to the tillage of this superior product.

Since 1880, the people working at Karabellas farm have trusted three main principles
that are applied to ensure our olive oil is of exceptional quality:

• The realization that the natural environment (degree of sunlight, mild winters, limited rainfall and the region’s flora of aromatic herbs) needs constant care and mild intervention
to preserve its delicate balance.

• The dedication to the everyday care of the olive trees as the main ingredient in ensuring
the great benefits of olive oil to humans.

• The responsibility towards the people that choose this olive oil, upheld through its
superior quality.

«The recognition that through an exhausting yet rewarding process of production, a wonderful gift of nature is revealed. This is the experience of true love for olive oil."
George Karabelas
