Extra virgin olive oil
Mount Athos olive oil without chemical impurities. Produced from the olive groves of Mount Athos with the taste and care of the monks.

The monastic diet is based mainly on traditional handmade products. Daily, the monks have two meals. They do not have lunch, but they have breakfast and supper (called morning and evening trapeza). In these meals, there is no talk; they are characterized by prayer, reverence and serenity, as the process of the meal is a ritual. In fact, these meals last at least 20 minutes, enough time for satiety. Fibers are in abundance in the monks’ diet and this is one of the key factors that helps their overall health. Fruits and salads are always a side dish served with meals. At the same time, legumes, which are consumed in large quantities due to fasting, are a good source of vitamins, such as A, E, folic acid, iron, magnesium, etc. and protect their immune system against cardiovascular disease, cancer and a number of other diseases that affect human nowadays.
