Welcome


Mediterrina is a small “Family and Friends” business. Our homeland is southwest Peloponnese in Greece, and our target is to provide the best olive oil you can possibly find.

Greece has a unique gift, gathering all the factors that are necessary for a top quality olive oil, due to a singular combination of climate and ground.

Olive oil production is a traditional activity of our families,  going back to many generations. Each year, we select the best harvest, and we supervise and manage oil extraction process according to our standards and guidelines. Then, we bottle it and label it accordingly, in order to give our customers detailed and accurate info about the oil, its exact origin, chemical and nutritional properties and characteristics. Our olive oil holds an organic certification, and is of course classified as “Extra virgin olive oil”
