Based in beautiful Dana Point, CA Cretan Oil USA is an exclusive importer of the finest extra virgin olive oils, balsamic vinegars and Kalamata olives from the lush island of Crete in Southern Greece.

Our unique products, which stand out for their unparalleled taste and quality, will astound you with their intensity, color and aroma. Crete, a truly blessed place with rich sunshine, exceptional soil, a combination of mountain and sea breezes and consistently mild climate, make this island the perfect land for the cultivation of the olive tree.

Because the olive tress of the region belong to thousands of small producers, each tree enjoys special care and attention. This personal care is passed on from family to family, generation to generation, in tandem with many centuries of experience and tradition.

When the harvest is ready, our olives are collected manually and transferred to pressing plants within a minimal amount of time so that no alteration of the fruit’s taste, aroma, color and general oil quality occurs.
