The MANI olives thrive in different regions of Greece, above all on the Peloponnese . They are obtained and fermented in the traditional way - not pasteurized. In the interests of the environment and healthy enjoyment, the Greek MANI table olives are mostly harvested by hand and gently debittered and preserved. This way the olives stay free of artificial additives and preserve their valuable nutrients .

The brownish-purple Kalamata olives enhance salads and mezze plates both visually and in terms of taste. With their juicy, mild aroma and their natural dark color, they stand out in the world of olives. But where does the skin color come from? Are Kalamata olives dyed black? No, the color comes with maturity: the Kalamata olive is harvested comparatively late in the year, when the once-green olive has ripened.
After harvesting, the Kalamata olives must be debittered. Industrially, this can be done quickly with the help of a special sodium hydroxide solution and subsequent pasteurization. However, MANI refrains from using this quick method - and for good reason. During pasteurization, the olives lose most of their natural nutrients and vitamins. At MANI, the olives are placed in a water-sea salt brine for four to eight months as part of the fermentation process and in this way are naturally debittered and preserved. For Kalamata olives with real raw food quality and fine taste!
