Greek Mycenae Omphacium Oleum is the most distinctive and prestigious product of the E La Won brand, combining ancient heritage with modern olive processing technology. The word Omphacium comes from Latin and refers to oil obtained from unripe, green olives, which gives this oil an intense and layered character.

It is produced exclusively from the Koroneiki variety, harvested in the early stage of ripeness when the polyphenol content is at its highest, making the oil especially valued for its health benefits. Processing takes place just a few hours after harvesting, through cold extraction at low temperatures, to preserve both aromatic and nutritional properties.

Its sensory profile is marked by pronounced fruity notes, the scent of freshly cut grass, artichoke, vine tomato, and green almond, while the taste is strongly pungent and harmoniously bitter, with a long-lasting finish. Visually, it stands out with an emerald-green color that reflects its freshness and early harvest period.

It is bottled in elegant containers featuring a design inspired by Mycenaean aesthetics, further emphasizing the historical connection of the product’s name and origin. This oil is best enjoyed raw - with salads, grilled vegetables, fresh fish, or simply with a piece of bread - in order to fully appreciate its complexity.
