EVOO stands for “Extra Virgin Olive Oil.” It is the highest grade of olive oil.

Always in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and never in the fridge! Once opened, it's best to use it within 6 months for optimal freshness.

• Look for an opaque glass (or stainless steel) container. Light is the enemy of good olive oil, and plastic bottles are a definite no because of microplastics.
• Look for the harvest date. You always want to make sure you’re consuming olive oil from the most recent harvest, which typically takes place between October and January annually.
• Look for the source of the olives, certifications, the bottling facility and the name of the producer.

EU Organic Certification: Our olive oil carries the prestigious EU Organic certification, known as the "gold standard" in organic farming. This certification ensures the highest standards of quality, sustainable farming, and environmental responsibility. It is stricter and has higher quality standards compared to USDA Organic, guaranteeing a product that is genuinely organic and environmentally friendly.

Origin and Quality: Our olive oil comes from Crete, a region renowned for its high-quality olive oil production. The unique climate and soil conditions of Crete, combined with traditional cultivation methods, result in an olive oil that is rich in flavor and nutrients.

Small Batch Production: At Ambrosia & Nektar, our olive oil is produced in small batches to maintain stringent quality control and uphold the highest standards. This artisanal approach stands in stark contrast to larger-scale productions, where quality is often sacrificed for quantity. Our rare olive oil is not only exclusive and meticulously curated, but it also serves as a reminder that olive trees and fertile soil are finite treasures. Unlike the seemingly endless supply found in supermarket aisles, our production respects and honors the limited availability of these natural resources.

Take, for instance, Manuka honey from New Zealand. Manuka trees grow only in specific areas, and the annual production is around 2,000 tons. Yet, it's puzzling that Manuka honey appears in every grocery store. Worldwide, over 10,000 tons are reportedly sold! How is this possible? The answer is that much of it is fake. Similarly, the seemingly abundant supply of high-quality olive oil on store shelves can be misleading. With Ambrosia & Nektar, you can be confident that our olive oil is truly authentic, rare, and of the highest quality, reflecting the genuine value of our limited natural resources.

Transparency and Information: Each bottle of our olive oil includes detailed information such as the harvest and press dates, the organic code of the producer, and the bottling facility. Additionally, we provide a complete chemical lab analysis, demonstrating the superiority of our oil in terms of purity and nutrient content. This level of transparency is rare and ensures you know exactly what you're getting.

Packaging: We use glass bottles to preserve the integrity and flavor of the oil. Unlike plastic, glass does not interact with the oil or leach chemicals into it, ensuring that you get the purest product possible.

Comparative Quality: When evaluating our olive oil alongside other brands, the details matter: Is it organic? Does it provide detailed information on harvest dates? What variety of olives were used? Where are the trees located, and what kind of (micro-)climate do they thrive in? Who produced it, and where was it bottled? Do they offer a comprehensive chemical analysis? Our dedication to quality and transparency is evident in our commitment to providing all this information.

Honey should be stored at room temperature out of direct sunlight.

Honey boasts an impressive shelf life and doesn't adhere to traditional expiration dates. When appropriately stored, honey can maintain its quality indefinitely. In fact, archaeologists have unearthed ancient pots of honey in Egyptian tombs that remain delectable even after thousands of years! You could say that honey never expires.

• Pure, raw, unfiltered honey may crystallize over time, but this is a completely natural process that doesn’t affect its quality or nutritional value. In fact, crystallization is often a sign of high-quality honey, rich in pollen and nutrients, and untouched by filtration or heat treatment. The sugar crystals form around the pollen and other beneficial components in the honey, showcasing its natural purity.
• To return crystallized honey to its liquid state, place the closed jar in a warm (not boiling) water bath. Let it sit for about 30 minutes to an hour. This will liquefy the honey without causing any harm to its properties.

• Wait for the tea to cool slightly. If you add honey to boiling hot tea, the high temperature can potentially degrade some of honey's natural enzymes and delicate nutrients.
• The safe temperature for adding honey to hot tea is typically below 105°F (41°C).

Honey: a delight for vegetarians due to its gluten-free nature, yet not embraced by vegans, as it derives from the realm of animal by-products.

According to FDA guidelines, honey should not be given to infants under one year of age.

Honey is one of the most adulterated foods in the world, behind milk and olive oil.

Dried oregano presents a flavor profile that is more concentrated and intense than its fresh counterpart. Through the drying process, the herb's aromatic compounds are heightened, yielding a bolder and more pronounced taste.

Store oregano in a cool, dark place away from heat and moisture.

Steep 1/2 teaspoon for 5 -7 minutes in boiling water, strain and enjoy.
