What Amazon says

PDO Kolymvari Chanion Kritis: Protected Designation of Origin (PDO): this olive oil is produced and processed entirely in the Kolymvari region of Chania, Crete, according to recognized and established methods — earning the legally protected designation Kolymvari Chanion Kritis PDO.
Koroneiki variety from Crete: Made exclusively with Koroneiki olives, a small Greek variety cultivated in the region for over 3,000 years and known for its fruity aroma, balanced character, and slightly peppery finish.
Gentle cold extraction: The olives are cold-extracted at low temperatures in our state-of-the-art mill in Kolymvari, preserving polyphenols, antioxidants, and the aromatic profile that defines an authentic Greek PDO olive oil.
Versatile in the kitchen: Ideal for roasting, cooking, baking, and of course for refining fresh salads, cold appetizers, grilled fish, pasta, hummus, and Mediterranean dishes.
