Krissa by Cretan Heritage is one of the core products in the company’s portfolio, designed to deliver consistent quality and a clear expression of Cretan origin. It is produced mainly from the Koroneiki variety, which is well adapted to the conditions of western Crete and known for its stable composition and defined aromatic profile.
The production process involves rapid handling of the olives after harvest and mechanical extraction, helping to preserve freshness and limit oxidation. In sensory terms, Krissa presents a typical profile of extra virgin olive oils from the Chania region, with fresh aromas that may recall green grass, olive leaves, and light herbal notes. On the palate, it shows a balanced structure, with noticeable but not dominant bitterness and a moderate pungency that develops toward the finish.
The texture is clean and light, with a stable aftertaste that supports everyday use.
