Eliris, the extraordinary taste of Greece

Recently I opened Eliris, a gift received during my trip in Northern Greece. I have to admit it was one my favorites from the very beginning, because of the cardboard gift tube, the vintage dark glass bottle, and the content written on the label: “Extraordinary organic extra-virgin olive oil”.

Well, I am big fan and daily consumer of extra-virgin olive oil and last, but not least, a professional with a strong background in public relations, so, I remotely feel a good marketing. But, considering all these, the real surprise and satisfaction came after opening the bottle, with the aromatic & fresh smell and fabulous taste, a little acid in the beginning and a great floral flavor towards the end, finishing with a sensation of sunshine and purity. I think this is the real, authentic taste of Greece.

Searching the story behind Eliris brand, I discovered Iris & Sam, the nice people who manage with meraki (doing something with soul, love or creativity) and cherish the family olive grove, positioned in the foothills of Menikio Mountains, with a beautiful, stunning view:

“It is our sincere belief that Eliris, our aromatic extra virgin olive oil, reflects within its character the imprint of the magnificent landscape, idyllic climate and meticulous care that has produced it. Add a touch of luxury and enrich your favorite salads, sauces, pasta and fresh foods. It’s ideal for finishing dishes, sous-vide, dressings, marinades and dips.”

The absolutely tasteful Eliris can be ordered by e-mail directly from the producer and yes, it’s shipped in Romania, too 🙂
