Crushed olives come from the exquisite Tsounati variety, a popular olive variety that thrives in Crete. Their name comes from the traditional process of “crushing,” which involves lightly smashing (crushing) the olives.

The distinctive preparation method, with the addition of lemon and salt, creates a unique flavor profile that highlights the authenticity and tradition of the Greek land. These olives can elevate any meal: enjoy them in salads, pair them with fine cheeses, or savor them directly from the jar as an excellent side dish. They are the perfect addition to bring an authentic touch of Greece to your table.
