From the Ancient Lands of Assos to your Table: the Journey of Obiado’s Olea
In the north of the Aegean, on the enchanting shores of Assos in Çanakkale, there are olive trees that have taken root under the same sun for thousands of years. These trees offer not just fruit, but a culture, a lifestyle and a heritage. Obiado's Olea captures a story born from these ancient lands in a bottle. Every drop carries the wisdom of the past, the power of nature and the care of today.
The Unique Climate of Assos
Assos is a region where the sea meets the mountains, where wind and sun blend throughout the year. The olives grown here absorb the richness offered by this special climate. The scorching heat of summer and the harsh winds of winter increase the resilience of the trees. As a result, Assos olive oil emerges that is rich in minerals, with a strong aroma and well-balanced.
Our Ancestors' Legacy to Us
Olea's journey is not just about agriculture, but also a family story. The experience of families who have grown olives on the same lands for centuries creates a knowledge base passed down from generation to generation. Obiado's Olea combines this heritage with modern techniques. Preserving traditional methods guarantees the naturalness of the olive oil, while advanced technology strengthens quality and safety.
From Harvest to Tables: The Adventure of Obiado's Olea
The olives are picked with the first light of morning, while the coolness still continues. This way the fruits maintain their freshness. The harvested olives are transported to the pressing facility without any delay. Olives processed below 27°C with cold pressing technique do not lose their vitamins and phenolic compounds. Thus, a product rich in antioxidants and beneficial to health is obtained in every drop.
After pressing, the olive oil is stored in stainless steel tanks. This environment, which does not come into contact with light and oxygen, preserves the freshness and aroma of the oil for a long time. It is then carefully filled into selected glass bottles or cans and reaches your tables.
Where Health and Flavor Meet
Olea's journey doesn't end with just a delicious oil. It also opens the doors to healthy living. Early harvest olive oil with high polyphenol content supports the immune system, strengthens heart health and soothes the digestive system. With these properties, it stands out as an indispensable element of the Mediterranean diet.
In the kitchen, it has a wide range of uses from salads to appetizers, from grilled vegetables to seafood. When consumed raw, both its intense aroma and nutritional value are felt in their purest form.
Obiado's Olea Philosophy
For Obiado's Olea, olive oil is not just a food product; it is a concrete indicator of the bond between nature and humans. The motto "from ancient lands to your table" summarizes this approach. Each product brings together respect for nature, family labor and passion for quality.
