Ellive: Ultra Premium (250 ml)

Not all extra virgin olive oils are the same. Most are not even close to this. Ellive Ultra Premium is a single-origin, single-variety Greek EVOO pressed exclusively from Koroneiki olives grown across 165 acres and 4,200 trees in the Ancient Olympia region of the Peloponnese, the historic heartland of this variety and one of the most celebrated olive-growing regions in the world.

Lab-analysed in October 2025, it carries 934 mg/kg of total polyphenols. That number places it firmly in the ultra-high phenolic category, a tier that very few oils reach and even fewer sustain with the flavor profile this one delivers.

What makes it different

Polyphenol content at this level is the result of several things working together: the Koroneiki variety, which is naturally high in phenolic compounds; an early harvest in October when the olives are still green and their polyphenol concentration is at its peak; cold pressing to protect those compounds through extraction; and a single-origin approach that eliminates blending and keeps the oil’s character intact from grove to bottle.

The flavor reflects all of this. Robustly fruity on the nose, with a pronounced peppery kick that builds on the palate and lingers. The high oleic acid content adds structure and stability. Acidity is kept to a maximum of 0.3%, well within the extra virgin standard and a marker of careful, quality-controlled production.

How to use it

It works as a finishing oil over bread, grilled meats, cheese, fish, salads, and labneh, anywhere you want the oil to be tasted rather than simply present. It is also taken by many as a daily 20 ml wellness shot, a straightforward way to get a consistent intake of high-phenolic olive oil as part of a daily routine.
