Halkidiki Olives
Halkidiki Olives
The Greek Halkidiki (Hal-KEE-dah-kee) is grown and harvested on the Halkidiki Peninsula of Northern Greece, a land with a unique climate and soil characteristics. Plucked from the tree in their green youth, Halkidiki olives are hand-harvested in mid-September to late October. From there, they are cured in tanks of sea salt brine for fermentation. The resulting olives boast an irresistibly meaty texture and tremendous briny, fruity flavor.
