EVERYTHING STARTED …
Our Story
Our family has lived in the area of Paiania for over a century. Our grandfather Konstantinos Davaris began to cultivate olive trees from a young age. In 1910 he planted the first trees of our olive grove, laying the foundations of a tradition following us to this day.
In 1945 post-war Greece, cultivating agricultural products was an important activity for the survival of the family. Grandpa taught our father Otto all the secrets and cares necessary for him to sustain the trees of the rare variety “Klonari” that he inherited.
Reaching today, the 245 olive groves, as they are typically called from the day they came into the possession of the family, are proud to manage and create this wonderful rare olive oil, as we learned from our parents.

Our Olive Groves
The olive tree is an age-old tree that encapsulates time during its journey.
Olive growers know very well how to read the marks left by the human hand on the tree over time. Care and respect are the ultimate tools needed for the olive tree to live, grow and yield all its gifts.
The cultivation, growth and exploitation of olive trees requires very special handling; therefore, oil production is often seen not just as science, but also as an art.
Each variety bears its own characteristics, its own requirements, that can vary even in the tree’s microclimate. This is the reason why rare varieties are grown locally, since olive growers are called to monitor the trees’ life very closely.
In our olive grove, our family has developed all natural methods and processes. The careful handling of the trees’ health has yielded and created a wonderful surprise: golden fruits with intense color and unique vigor.
