Let know us better

My name is Manolis Papadakis. I studied Geology in University of Patra and after finishing my studies I chose to live and work in my village called Kouses. The village is located on one of the hills of Messara plain near Festos antiquities and the picturesque Matala bay.

My love for the olive tree and the desire to produce oil of high quality (“Gold Liquid” as Homer called it) led me to search for new ways of improving the production.

Initially I selected the organic cultivation, which I adopted on 1996. However my effort for an even better product resulted in the selection of biodynamic cultivation.
