Veros Heritage is a premium extra virgin olive oil from Messinia in the Peloponnese, crafted from Koroneiki olives harvested early to preserve their rich polyphenol content. Cold-pressed and unfiltered, this exceptional oil delivers a vibrant, robust flavour with notes of fresh herbs and a distinctive peppery finish. Traditionally packaged in a protective 3L metal tin, it is shielded from light and oxidation to maintain its freshness and quality. Perfect for drizzling over salads, grilled vegetables, or artisan bread, it brings the authentic taste of Greece to every dish.

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 4.8
Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.
Bitterness 4.6
Bitterness is a positive sensory attribute of an EVOO. It can also signal the presence of phenolic compounds.
Pungency 4.2
Pungency is the pleasant peppery or spicy sensation experienced at the back of the throat when tasting olive oil.
Polyphenols 8.8
Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds found in olives and other plants. In olive oil, reported phenolic content is a chemistry measure that can be associated with bitterness, pungency and oxidative stability; total phenols are not interchangeable with hydroxytyrosol-plus-derivatives measurement used for the EU-authorised wording.

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Messinia, Peloponnese, Greece.

Why choose it

Olive composition

Single variety listed

The latest release lists Koroneiki as its only recorded cultivar.

Why choose it

A release listing one cultivar is useful when you want to explore that variety's typical character.

Worth knowing

One listed cultivar does not record a percentage, so it should not be treated as proof of 100% composition without a source saying so.
