The transport and pressing must be done within 24 hours and is being stored in a shady place. The production of PDO KALAMATA olive oil lasts 4 to 6 weeks and this is exactly what makes it special. In taste, it has a medium fruity aroma of green fruit, slightly bitter and light to medium spicy. It has the ideal balance in the rules of tasting.
