The exquisite extra virgin olive oil contains valuable ingredients that promote health and well-being. At the Monastery, there is a modern certified olive mill that preserves the tradition of the old stone-built oil press. The production of olive oil is one of the main pursuits of monastic life, essential for daily life, worship, and nutrition. The I.M. Vatopedi Monastery, with decades of experience in olive cultivation and olive oil production, selects fine olive oils produced by collaborating Monastic Olive Groves according to the cultivation practices of I.M.M. Vatopedi.
