About Us
With origins deep rooted in the Laconia region of the Southern Peloponnese in Greece, we are proud of our rich history in olive cultivation and olive oil production, spanning five generations.
Located close to the ancient town of Gytheio which translated, means “Land of God”, we are truly blessed to be situated in the rolling hills of the Southern Peloponnese, Greece, next to the Laconian Gulf. This combination of sun, sea breeze and rich, hilly terrain, provide the ideal climate & conditions for olive cultivation.
Olive production dates back as far as 1500 BC making it an ancient product of rich history & heritage. In acknowledgement to this, we have invested in the sustainable care of the land which enables us, at Loukakos Estate, to grow olives of the highest possible quality.

"I bought this after reading that high polyphenolic olive oil was beneficial for auto-immune conditions. I decided on this Loukakos Estate evoo because of the excellent responsiveness to my questions from the producer. Apart from the health aspect, I am very pleased with the quality/taste of the oil and it is certainly different from the normal stuff from the supermarket. I would definitely recommend it."
Healthy and delicious"I suffer from headaches as well as general aches and pains. I was told that phenols found in certain extra virgin olive oils contain anti-inflammatory properties so I thought I'd give this olive oil a try. For the last couple of weeks or so, I've routinely been taking a shot in the morning before breakfast and again just before I go to bed. I do have to say that during this time, my headaches are so much better and my aches and pains have very noticeably subsided to the point where I no longer rely on anti-inflammatories. It's incredible. A small price to pay for my positive well-being. I can't recommend it enough."

What's so special about our EVOO
In one word, Polyphenols! Polyphenols!! Polyphenols!!!
The olive oil we produce is no ordinary EVOO. It is a natural medicine.
The analysis and certification conducted by the natural products pharmaceutical department of the University of Athens, confirms that it belongs to a very special category of extra virgin olive oils which protect blood lipids from oxidative stress if one daily consumes 20gr of olive oil.
Phenolic compounds, in particular oleocanthal, and oleacein are known for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. A number of trials and studies have shown the benefits of high phenolic olive oil in alleviating symptoms and potential therapeutic effects for Alzheimer’s, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Type II Diabetes, Leukemia and many cancers as well as other auto-immune and neuro-degenerative diseases that are prevalent in today’s culture.
Oxidative Stress
Oxidative Stress
Polyphenols are nature’s antioxidant and help protect blood lipids (fat) from being oxidized. This is also the basis of the EU Approved Health Claim for Olive Oil polyphenols. Oxidative stress is linked to a number of conditions such as: high cholesterol, heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer and more.

As with heart disease, polyphenols limit oxidation of lipids reducing the formation of plaques which travel through our blood system and cause blockages or reduced blood flow in our brains resulting in strokes. Recent studies have also shown that there is less possibility of age related cognitive decline (e.g. Alzheimer’s) in older people who consume Healthy Olive Oil.

Heart Disease
Olive oil helps maintain good levels of cholesterol by being a good source of HDL “good” Cholesterol whilst the polyphenols limit the oxidation of LDL “bad” Cholesterol which causes plaques. Plaques block arteries and limit the flow of blood to our heart, brain and the rest of our organs, causing heart attacks, brain strokes and more.
Read MoreCancer
Cancer
Many recent studies have shown that olive oil high in polyphenols exert a protective effect against certain malignant tumors (breast, prostate, endometrium, digestive tract and more). It is unclear what the direct relationship is but olive oils with higher polyphenols yielded better results in the studies than others.
Read MoreDigestive System
Digestive System
Olive oil fatty profile makes it the only oil and fat that is completely digested by the body and has been used as a remedy as far back as Ancient Greece. It helps in all stages of the digestive system from reducing reflux to improving digestion in the large intestine. It even helps with halitosis (bad breath).

Bone Health
Research has shown that people with diets high in extra virgin olive oils are less likely to develop Rheumatoid Arthritis. The anti-inflammatory polyphenols also work as a natural relief for those who have developed it whilst also helping bone calcification by aiding in the absorption of calcium.
