Marinated in water, sea salt, and vinegar.

Acropolis Organics Green Olives are handpicked from a family orchard in Argolida, Peloponnese, Greece, the region best known for producing olives in the whole world. The olives are then sorted to ensure quality and then further sorted by size.

Next, they are cured in barrels of brine made with local fresh spring water and local Cretan sea salt. Finally, the olives are pitted before being put into glass jars. Because they are cured using traditional age-old methods, and not by using caustic soda like many of the olives on the market, not only are they healthier but also fresher and better tasting.

These olives are hand-picked, certified organic, non-gmo and contain no additives or preservatives. Our ideal growing conditions produce more phenol antioxidants, which dramatically increase the health benefits and deliver maximum taste. Because they are left in their natural state without the use of dyes or acids, shades of color may vary among the individual olives.

BENEFITS OF GREEN OLIVES

Oleuropein is known to support healthy aging, cardiovascular health, and colon and prostate health.* It is also has powerful antioxidant effects and supports a healthy immune system response.*

Green olives also contain hydroxytyrosol, a phytonutrient which provides support to the immune and musculoskeletal systems.* Eating the whole fruit also provides a healthy source of fiber, iron, copper, and vitamin E.*

They never blend with other oils or varieties or use chlorophyll, so the final product is 100% pure and natural. The salty Mediterranean air flowing through their sun-kissed fields adds a unique peppery finish. The smooth fruity taste will transform your daily cooking into a celebration.
