Cretan Treasure Gold 0.2 – Messara P.D.O.
The authentic taste of Messara.

What makes it exceptional
Cretan Treasure Gold 0.2 is defined by one powerful element: its origin.
Produced exclusively in the Messara region of Crete, it carries the official Protected Designation of Origin
(P.D.O.) from the respected Greek organization Agrocert , guaranteeing that every drop comes from a
land with unique characteristics that cannot be reproduced anywhere else.
With naturally low acidity (0.1–0.3), this olive oil expresses a vibrant, authentic character shaped entirely
by its place and variety.

Origin
Messara is more than a fertile valley — it is a land of history and legacy.
This is the wider region of Phaistos, the second most important city of Minoan Crete after Knossos, one
of the great ancient cities of the island.
For thousands of years, olives have been cultivated in this land.
Today, the same groves continue to produce oil under the same sun and winds, carrying forward a living
tradition.

Taste profile
This is an olive oil with energy and personality — not something neutral, but something that speaks.
Aroma: fresh-cut grass, olive leaves, green almond, wild Cretan herbs
Taste: medium to intense fruitiness, with notes of artichoke, fresh herbs, and hints of green tomato or
tomato leaf
