Produced exclusively from the Hondrolia Chalkidikis and Chalkidiki varieties of olive tree, Halkidiki olives are grown, processed, and packaged in the Prefecture of Chalkidiki. The largest variety of Greek olive, they are often called 'donkey olives'.
Characterized by a robust and bright green glossy skin, rich, firm flesh and a subtle fruity aroma with a somewhat bitter, spicy flavor, they are praised in Greece and beyond as one of the best table olives on the market. Four different types of these olives are available: whole olives, pitted olives, crushed olives, and pitted olives stuffed with almonds or small pieces of red pepper, carrot, pickle, blue cheese, or garlic.
