Attis Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a 1 litre bottle of 100% Greek extra virgin olive oil, marked first cold pressing on the label. Extra virgin is the highest grade of olive oil, obtained directly from olives and solely by mechanical means, so it keeps the natural aroma of the fruit in a way that refined oils do not.
In a Turkish kitchen this is the oil for zeytinyağlılar, the family of dishes braised in olive oil and served cool: green beans, artichokes, leeks, stuffed vine leaves. It also goes into cold meze such as haydari and acılı ezme, over lentil soup and fresh salads, onto grilled halloumi, or into a simple dressing whisked with lemon juice and a pinch of salt. A small saucer with warm bread is a dish in itself.
Store the bottle in a cool, dry place, away from heat and direct light, and close the cap tightly after each use so the flavour stays fresh.
