The Art of Olive Oil Production
The journey of MYST® begins at the end of October, which is the ideal harvest period. Depending on the desired result in taste, olives may be harvested at any point during the ripening season. We prefer the early harvest when the fruit is still unripe and green.
Even though the production is lower at this stage, the olives impart a more fruity and pungent note to the olive juice, while, at the same time, contributing to our health by being higher in polyphenols and antioxidants.
HARVEST & COLD-PRESSED EXTRACTION
At harvest, the olives are collected with great care and stored in crates to ensure their perfect condition. The pressing of the olives is strictly finalized within 24 hours from harvesting, in order to be conserved and maintain all their beneficial substances intact. The olives are cold-pressed in a technologically sophisticated 2-phase mill, without ever exceeding 27 ° C, resulting in an olive juice with exceptional aromas and taste.
Before being bottled, the olive oil is stored in stainless steel tanks for a short period of time, which allows for a natural sedimentation under ideal conditions. Thus, the MYST® extra virgin olive oil is finally ready for you to enjoy.

GOLD AS A FOOD SUPPLEMENT
Ever since the times of Pharaohs in 2000 BC, gold has been considered as food able to win the favour of Gods. According to the ancient alchemist concepts, gold possesses legendary powers which contribute to a long and vital life. Olive oil is often referred to as “liquid gold.” So to emphasise the point, MYST added 24 karat edible golden flakes from the finest varieties.
The gold is considered “biologically inert,” meaning it passes through the digestive tract without being absorbed. Eatable gold as a food supplement is listed as E-175 and is safe to ingest.
Traditional Slow-Cured Olives in Brine, Lemon, Olive Oil & Oregano
Our olives are crafted the traditional way, using a slow and natural curing process that respects the fruit and enhances its authentic Mediterranean character. Each batch matures gently in a blend of natural brine, fresh lemon, extra virgin olive oil, and wild oregano—without chemicals, artificial debittering, preservatives, or industrial shortcuts. This slow fermentation method preserves the olive’s natural flavor, nutritional value, and rich aroma, creating a clean, honest product rooted in heritage.
Available as whole olives and pitted olives, both varieties offer exceptional taste and versatility. Ideal for salads, mezze, cooking, or healthy snacking, our olives stand out for their pure ingredients and superior quality. For customers seeking traditional craftsmanship, real food, and authentic Mediterranean flavor, these olives deliver a genuinely premium experience.
