Fresh & Aromatic Olive Oil with Cretan Olives and Natural Lemon
Famigo Extra Virgin Olive Oil with Lemon is a premium extra virgin olive oil developed for both daily Ole Shot consumption and refined culinary use. It is produced by cold-extracting fresh olives and lemons together from the very beginning, rather than blending flavors after extraction.
Only early-harvest Koroneiki olives from Crete, Greece, and fresh natural lemons are carefully selected during the harvest season. Production is limited to this period. Within 2 hours of harvest, olives and lemons are co-extracted at temperatures below 27°C, preserving their natural aroma, freshness, and nutritional quality.
The raw ingredients are combined at a ratio of 70% olives and 30% lemons during extraction. After processing, the oil is completed with a balanced composition of 92% olive oil and 8% lemon components. Both lemon peel and pulp are used, resulting in a deep, natural citrus aroma with smooth and gentle acidity.
Even after extraction, the oil maintains a final acidity level of 0.3% or lower, ensuring a clean, smooth taste without sharpness. This makes it suitable for daily consumption as an Ole Shot, offering a light and comfortable experience. A 500 ml bottle, consumed at 15 ml per day, provides over one month of consistent use, supporting an easy and sustainable Mediterranean-style daily routine.
Why Co-Extraction Matters
Lemon aroma is primarily contained in the natural essential oils found in the peel, rather than in the juice. These essential oils are fat-soluble and are most effectively and stably captured when co-extracted with olive oil at low temperatures.
By extracting olives and lemons together:
✔ The oil avoids sharp acidity or overpowering sourness
✔ No artificial lemon flavor is introduced
✔ A smooth, deep, and naturally integrated lemon aroma is achieved
The lemon components remain protected within the oil, reducing oxidation and preserving aroma over time. This results in a unified flavor profile that is gentle on the stomach and suitable for everyday use.

Blessing Ritual of the First Oil
Ritual de Bendición del Primer Aceite
Before the first oil is produced, Crete observes "Agiasmos," a centuries-old Greek Orthodox blessing ritual. A priest carries holy water and sacred basil branches,
offering prayers of gratitude to the olive trees and harvest, blessing the production process and the safety of all workers.
The table displays pomegranates symbolizing abundance, bread representing life, and candles embodying the light of Christ.
This ritual of sprinkling holy water to bless crops and people transcends simple agricultural production—it is a sacred moment where nature, faith, and community converge as one.
FAMIGO witnessed and documented this reverent ceremony firsthand, confirming the Cretan tradition and authenticity contained in every bottle.
