Vedema, a dis­tin­guished Greek extra vir­gin olive oil, has been awarded a Silver medal at the 2025 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. This recog­ni­tion high­lights the qual­ity and crafts­man­ship behind this prod­uct, which orig­i­nates from the renowned Kritsa olive groves in Lasithi, Crete.

Produced by Mourello, Vedema is crafted from the Koroneiki olive vari­ety, known for its fruity fla­vor and aro­matic pro­file. The olive trees in Kritsa have a long his­tory of tra­di­tional cul­ti­va­tion, with har­vest­ing tak­ing place from November to early January each year. The olives are hand-picked and pressed within two days of har­vest­ing, ensur­ing the fresh­ness and qual­ity of the oil.

The Kritsa region is cel­e­brated for its olive groves, which have been main­tained since ancient times. Vedema’s low acid­ity and rich taste are a tes­ta­ment to the care­ful pro­duc­tion meth­ods employed by Mourello. This award at the NYIOOC fur­ther cements Vedema’s sta­tus as a fine exam­ple of Greek extra vir­gin olive oil.
