Greek Kalamata Olives
Origin: Peloponnese Region, Greece
Kalamata olives are known as "the king of olives", and are quite possibly the most popular of the Greek olives.Kalamata olives have a strong fruity flavour, with a smooth meaty texture.Just a handful into a stew can add extra complexity and flavour.
Packaging Info: We package these olives in the same way that we serve them at our market stalls; in a simple plastic bag and dressed with extra virgin olive oil. For larger quantities (750g +) we can put them in a tub filled with brine, which will keep them for several weeks. If you have a preference, please leave us a note in the comment section when you are checking out!
Storage info: Store your olives in the fridge, removing them about half an hour before you serve. We dress our olives with Extra Virgin olive oil which solidifies in the fridge, and needs time to thaw. Your olives will look and taste best at room temperature.
Fridge Life (dressed with extra virgin olive oil): 7 - 10 days
