In Apokoronas, Crete, the land and its history are deeply intertwined. The name of the region comes from the ancient city of “Ippokoronion”, which is associated with the Greek word “ίππος” - horse - a symbol of strength and endurance.
From this heritage, Apokoronas Oil was founded in 1983, continuing the tradition of olive growing with respect for the land and its people. The horse on our emblem bears olive branches and leaves, uniting the region’s past with the art we practice today.
Every oil we produce reflects the character of Apokoronas - pure, authentic and shaped by its soil and sun.
Through guided tours, tastings and agricultural experiences, we invite visitors to discover the life of the olive tree and the values that define our work.
